Lecture about my artistic practice

Silvia Weidenbach is an internationally renowned jewellery artist, who creates exuberant jewellery that fuses the traditional with the contemporary. Weidenbach has pioneered in combining 3D printing, haptic devices, and traditional silversmithing techniques to make jewellery, which she calls "hybridized jewels". They are inspired by the extravagance of ornamentation and exquisite craftsmanship that, decorative arts have displayed throughout

In Weidenbach's lecture A Visual Feast: reinterpreting the Gilbert Collection, A Full Sensory Experience, Weidenbach will discuss her residency and resulting exhibition, A Visual Feast, within the Rosalinde and Arthur Gilbert Collection at the V&A, London. She will explain in what way she looked to challenge how visitors interacted with historic and contemporary objects within museum spaces, by exploring the human senses through different artistic mediums, and collaborations with numerous artists, performers and musicians.
