Year of Graduation: 2024

The author's final work is the creation of a jewelry brand dedicated to reinvention of the image of cold. An object in the ice is “preserved.” Thinking about preserving the memory of something, the author chose the topic of visual research - “Georgian and Victorian mourning jewelry”, since when creating a collection of jewelry there is an opportunity to be inspired by how memory was preserved in another country, another culture and another time. While working on the research, the author asks the question: what exactly distinguishes mourning jewelry from all others? After all, very often at first glance it does not “scream” about its purpose. After reading many text sources and independently studying the mourning jewelry, the author came to the conclusion that mourning is an entire culture. The beauty and uniqueness of mourning jewelry has hidden meanings, in fact, you need to examine the jewelry from all sides in order to find out the history of the person to whom it is dedicated.
