Today, a new generation of artists from the continent is interested in exploring that relationship and observing jewelry outside its conventional frame. In the last ten years, thanks to the Internet and to foreign publications, Latin American jewelry makers have been able to learn about the work of their European colleagues, yet only a few of them have had significant exposure beyond their own countries.
Think Twice aims to rectify this imbalance, offering the international audience a glimpse of the history of jewelry in Latin America and a comprehensive view of its contemporary development, drawing attention to the unique and innovative ways in which visual artists and jewelry makers born or living in Latin America view and relate, through their work, to such a diverse continent.
