Rethinking the Divide: The Natural and the Artificial in Contemporary Jewellery (3/3). Spotlight Artworks by Klimt02
Published: 06.02.2025

Here we are at the third and final part of our Spotlight series, which explores the ambiguous and captivating dialogue between the natural and the artificial through a selection of contemporary jewellery pieces.
This article highlights a selection of artists whose work responds to a constantly changing world, where the concept of nature feels almost mythical. The widespread presence of the artificial is reshaping our connection with the living world, opening the door to stories told by artists interpreting today's chaos, swinging between dystopia and hope.
The series will unfold across the following parts:
Part 1. The Reproduction of Nature Through the Creative Hand.
Part 2. Shaping Nature: The Interconnection Between Natural and Artificial.
Part 3. Towards a Post-Natural Future: New Narratives in the Evolving Human-Environment Relationship of the Anthropocene
