Katarína Defeo Fiúza Siposová: EVERY BODY COUNTS: ON THE SOCIAL VALUE OF JEWELLERY

Jewellery perceived socially and politically while preserving its identity. The lecture approaches performativity of jewellery as a material object and examines the principles and consequences that result from this. Performativeness opens up the social aspects of jewellery making it possible to get rid of its resentiments and to transform itself into a light-hearted form while still making responsible and socially engaged statement. The lecture is a reflection on jewellery from the other side, from the side of the author and the side of the performativeness, interaction and social engagement of the small object. To stand on the other side means to look for new meanings, links, or wit life situations for better orientation in the world.
