Silvia Weidenbach is the first V&A Gilbert Collection artist in residence. Melding digital design, 3D printing, and traditional silversmithing techniques, she creates exuberant jewellery that demands attention. This book, alongside a commission and display, is the culmination of her residency.

Weidenbach collaborated with numerous artists, performers and musicians during her residency to reinterpret the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Collection and her own jewellery. These collaborations pushed the boundaries of how visitors interacted with historic and contemporary objects within the museum space, and explored the human senses through different artistic mediums.
