History and Culture of Jewellery 2 (JADE 1128)
The second level of History and Culture of Jewellery familiarizes students with the development of movements in contemporary design and jewellery from the Nineteenth Century to the present. As global trade and travel increased, cross-cultural exchange and modernization led to the rise of many design movements whose influences are still being felt today. As traditional roles of craft, art and design were rejected, handmade objects became vehicles for individual expression, innovation, and even social critique. Through this course, students will be able to apply knowledge of historic design movements to their own design work, and also learn to understand the possibilities of jewellery beyond its commercial and aesthetic uses.
