From the first five interviews about critique, we received many answers and ideas. But more important: more questions came up. We go into a second round of interviews and talk with people from the contemporary jewellery scene to answer questions about censorship, morality and what value criticism has towards the transformation of society.
In this sixth interview of our new series about critique, we talk with Barbara Schmidt, which works in the field for 25 Years. She is a researcher and maker, author, curator, and teacher. Her latest Publication is "25 Reasons why to wear Jewellery".
