I have been going through the Narrative papers from the virtual gallery and have decided to share some of my thoughts on what I have read:
Narrative jewellery is not only about jewellery which tells a story, but jewellery which implies a certain meaning or expression and therefore it’s about the thoughts and ideas which the creator hopes to produces for the viewer/wearer.
One jewellery designer whose work I came across that seemed to reflect this concept. She bases her narrative work historical narrative stories, where she uses “personal and vintage objects” which would hold personal significance to the wearer such as family jewellery etc. She would then use these personal treasures as a base for her designs and manufacturing development. An example of her work is the brooch pin, in which she has used old found pearl, which was inspired by old photographs.
