"Dream and reality, jewels" at Galerie Caractère


Dream and reality, jewels
25 May – 27 June 2024
Opening : May 25 / 11 am -5 pm
Galerie Caractère, Neuchâtel Switzerland

“Dream and reality, jewels” (brooches, rings, bracelets and earrings). Reality itself is a dream because dreaming is simple, we all do it, but making dreams come true is something else. Life itself is a dream within a dream.

In “Dream and Reality” contemporary and traditional jewelry techniques are mixed. In some jewelry, the provocative subtlety of “disposability” becomes more important when confronted by onlookers who say they are made of waste.

Some express the personal struggle between individual identity and external values and document a journey of self awareness in which they capture the conflict and struggle between individuals and society; dreams as reality and reality as dream.

On the other hand, there are the jewelry that provoke reactions, feelings, humor and irony and do not go unnoticed.
