Every piece of jewellery is narrative – Anna Börcsök’s doctoral thesis defence and exhibition opening

Jewellery designer Anna Börcsök’s doctoral dissertation focuses on the research of artistic narratives in design, in particular jewellery. The exhibition opening at MOME, also featuring works by select figures of the Hungarian contemporary scene, is seeking to answer what value jewellery holds in today’s world, and what messages and stories it conveys.

The MOME Doctoral School cordially invites everyone to the doctoral defence and exhibition opening of jewellery designer Anna Börcsök. The doctoral dissertation is entitled The Narrative Jewellery . . . Design, Methodological Research, Art Narratives in Design. The related masterwork will be featured in the Secret. Contemporary Narrative Jewellery exhibition opening at MOME and curated by Börcsök, alongside the following other exhibitors: Attila Norbert Dávid, Marcell Égi, Veronika Fábián, Patrícia Harsány, Kinga Huber, Fanni Király, Fanni Vékony, Mária Roskó, Nóra Tengely, Zoltán Tóth, Gábor János Varga.

“Jewellery is signs and symbols in space, acting as prompts for communication between the artists, the audience, and the wearers. The materials around us offer endless possibilities to communicate messages through the language of objects. The exhibition explores the relationship between objects in the context of a specific space. Will the viewer be able to notice the connections?”

The exhibition will be opened by photographer Érmezei Lili Zoé.

Spatialising Degrowth International Symposium

„Global society has not yet understood the distinction between physical expansion and qualitative development. It has passed the stage where more physical expansion is desirable. No widely-shared global goal is now served by having more people or material goods. Now it is important to learn how to advance the development of our species - achieving equity, peace, psychological balance, physical health, environmental quality.” (Dennis Meadows, co-author of Limits to Growth)

VR and interactive digital tools in healthcare and psychological practice

At the event, psychologists and therapists will give short introductions to their work with these tools before participants break into themed small-group discussions. These sessions will explore key ethical, design, and impact-assessment questions around VR-based therapies, such as How can the effects of VR experiences be measured? What ethical dilemmas does the virtual environment introduce in therapeutic contexts? And how can VR be tailored for older adults or other vulnerable groups?
