About:
The whole Jewelry & Metalworking course of the Kobe Design University feel very honored
to have this opportunity to exhibit at “Die Neue Sammlung –The Design Museum” in
Munich.
This exhibition brings together two ideas – onomatopoeia as a rhythmical sound repetition to describe senses and contemporary jewelry as a tool of communication, both have something in common in the idea of “transmitting feelings.” We hope that through each artist’s selected onomatopoeia, everyone can receive and appreciate the message conveyed by the creator’s emotions and their jewelry.
KanKan ‒ KiraKira ‒ DokiDoki are some Japanese onomatopoeic words that inspired us.
KanKan is the sound of the hammer when making jewelry ‒ KiraKira is the excitement of looking at jewelry ‒ DokiDoki is the feeling when wearing jewelry.
Here we tell our stories through our objects. What kind of stories can you find?
