Artist's Statement
Adrienn Pesti is a jeweller who is interested in social alienations expressed through stereotypes, prejudices and is enthused by creating possibilities of how overcome these judgements. Inspiration lies in creating platforms for people from all walks of life, investing their relationships with fellow humans and their environment. Thus, she is interested in how jewellery can function as an object to prompt social interactions and lead to integrations. Her main focus is to reconnect alienated people from the margins of society by her pieces that carry their own visual language to stimulate interactions in an engaging, often playful manner. Her work reverts us to an almost childlike curiosity. The bright colours and unique textures appeal to the senses, traits that all humans share. Her current project nurtures her concept through contemporary industrial enamelling, laser welded steel and silk clay.
