Date: 2022.05.24
The MOME Alumni Jewellery exhibition was organised in collaboration between the Liszt Institute – Hungarian Cultural Centre Bucharest and the MOME Design Institute at the exhibition spaces of the Institute and formed part of the Design Go section of the Romanian Design Week.

Curated by jewellery designer Orsolya Kecskés, the exhibition provides a comprehensive overview of the works created by designers graduating from MOME in the past 20 years, featuring items by MOME alumni many of whom have become well-known designers and teachers. It is available for viewing until 27 May in Bucharest, and has been opened by Dan Piersinaru. He is a visual artist and the founder of the 10-year-old AUTOR festival, one of the most important contemporary jewellery festivals, which also has its own magazine.

The theme of this year’s event is #forward, underlining the importance of creative industries in designing a future centred around sustainability.

A stunning video illustrating the evolution of starspots over time on the surface of red giant XX Trianguli (XX Tri) has been produced by data scientists Ádám Radványi and Viktor Varga of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME). Based on 16 years of observations, researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and the Astronomy Institute of the HUN-REN Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences reconstructed the changes in the cooler regions of the star’s surface, known as starspots. The MOME team translated these findings into an engaging data visualisation animation, making this complex phenomenon accessible to a broader audience.

What therapeutic effect could a beautiful virtual walk through nature or immersive gardening have? This is one of the questions explored by the Zenctuary VR+ project, led by Ágnes Karolina Bakk PhD within the FutureCare Lab at MOME, which has secured nearly 1 million euros in funding through the HU-rizont grant programme of the National Research, Development, and Innovation Office. Developed for healthcare facilities, this virtual natural environment aims to serve both rehabilitative and diagnostic purposes, improving patient care and the quality of life for the elderly, promoting recovery, and reducing the workload of healthcare professionals.
