I think the project is important – it is vital to show the world that art matters, and can be found in any medium. It is supportive – the team nurtures the participants and encourages all that their work matters- from internationally known jewellers to suburban moms from half a world away who are trying their best to get out there (such as myself). And it is celebratory – it celebrates the importance and history of personal adornment and shows that it still has a place in this modern world.
