Where does grief come from? Where does this common perception of emotions come from? Joy, truth? Where does it come from and what is this invisible yet ever-present/perceptible substance? Is it the essence of our (primordial) soul? Or is it all just our perception, some game of neurons?
Where do our thoughts come from? They seem like intangible matter that flows fluidly through our brains until they materialize. And if we don't realize them, they disperse, disappear and appear somewhere else, on the other side of the world, even in another time and space.
And again – is there some kind of collective “database” that feeds us with our feelings, ideas? Like a sea or a huge wavy veil that slowly hits us when we are ready? Is AI a reflection of this collective pool of essence? Are our bodies just avatars in this time and space?

MOJCA GAZIČ, Slovenia
She has been involved in jewerly making since 2015, when she first attended an extended workshop with a master goldsmith in Padua. This was followed by numerous advanced trainings courses in various goldsmith schools across Italy (Florence, Rome, Milan). Metal is her soul material, and she is particularly drawn to the technical aspects of jewelry design and construction. She makes jewelry mainly from silver. By intertwining various classic goldsmithing techniques, she also introduces more modern approaches into her pieces. The jewelry that is created is named MoicaG Handmade.
