Veroniek Dutré Jewelry Design

On September, 28 th, the Jewelry Award competition was held at DIVA Antwerp. I am very pleased that I received the award for best craftsmanship for my work: Baroque, an architectural reduction The expo shows all nominees.

Jewelry Award 2018, theme: Baroque I'm very honoured to be nominated for the Jewelry Award 2018, taking place in the new diamond museum, DIVA, in Antwerp on september, 28th. My work is titled: "Baroque: an architectural reduction" I integrated the baroque atmosphere into my architectural design process, keeping in touch with the baroque style elements. The ‘dynamic movement’ is reduced to geometric minimalistic dome shaped forms; the animal fur and pearls contribute in a subtle way to ‘richness and vivacity’; ‘wealth and power’ are materialised by combining gold and precious stones. Although different in their appearance, the three brooches are in harmony through their identical shaped form.

Received my copy! Thanks Nicolas Estrada and Promo Press  for including my Monkey Puzzle brooches. 'New brooches' features 172 jewellery designers from all over the world and shows more than 400 contemporary brooch design.  Now available in book stores all over the world.

Of ik andere hangertjes kon ontwerpen voor aan deze bestaande anti-allergische haakjes. Tuurlijk kan dat!  

Ik neem, samen met 33 andere kunstenaars, deel aan 'Kunstroute Boutersem'. Je kan op zaterdag 28 en zondag 29 april langskomen.
