Intro
Pia's critical, yet humoristic jewellery collection questions the way we present ourselves on Instagram, and the way this changes our perceived social status and world-view.  She recreates some of the most widely used types of images on Instagram in real-life, using meticulous and time-consuming manual techniques. Deceptive trompe-l’oeil effects make the jewellery appear different in images from what they are in reality. A second, more thorough look is necessary to spot the deception. Through her jewellery, she comments on how we spend a lot of our precious time creating a picture-perfect, superficial online profile, while hiding the true depths of our everyday reality. / Dr. Tine De Ruysser
