Concept: My series ´Gesture jewellery´ deals with the question of traditional functions of jewellery, artistic practices and mark making. During thousands of years the tools for artistic techniques: brushes, pencils, pastels, etc. have taken certain forms that became the norm for those mediums. Jewellery, too, has taken conventional forms across history, however, its function is more abstract than that of artistic tools. My pieces are a blend between jewellery and artistic tools, taking distance from both, reinterpreting their conventions and traditions while pointing out some historical references such as seal rings (that are made for leaving marks) in the case of the history of jewellery, and gestural painting of abstract expressionism in art history. Gesture painting encourages freedom in the expression of emotions throughout movements. However, as the shape of my pieces diverges from the shape of traditional artistic tools, the wearer/performer is invited to overcome the rules established by my pieces, finding alternative ways of holding and using the tools by means of unfamiliar motions of the human body. The three works of the series use three different methods to leave traces on the surface. For the brush-like piece, except the metal and the brush, another material (paint) is needed to leave marks. In the case of the second piece, a material embedded in the metal (the crayon) itself makes a mark on the surface. The object has two sides with two different drawing surfaces and patterns inviting the wearer to apply a dynamic movement while drawing. This series of works was created as the final project for the Art School of Buda (Budai Rajziskola).
