Silversmithing & Jewellery

IMAGE: A selection of silver objects selected from our virtual hosts private collection

What does it mean to be human? How might you express that meaning through objects? Silversmithing and Jewellery students investigated the phenomena of the Anthropocene and considered their actions and practice in terms of their impact on the environment and planet. They were invited to design and make a Vessel of Humanity to communicate an element of what it means to them to be living in these times. These objects aim to tell stories and invoke feelings, making references to things that are important to the makers in response to what they have learned about the Anthropocene.
