The 11th edition of the New Talent Award 2025 by Klimt02 aims to recognize the work of graduate students in our field by supporting their careers in the professional world. Nominated by our school members, one of the selected graduates will win the New Talents Award.
Through the transformation of insect bodies via postmortem “mortality rituals,” Enrike shifts the focus from death as an end to death as a generative process. Her jewellery objects blur boundaries between self and other, nature and culture, attraction and repulsion, inviting reflection on how we assign beauty, value, and disgust.
