What Walked In by Jewellery – Linking Bodies

Invite for our exhibition

How do we pass through architecturally, from inside to outside? How do we make contact materially with meaning – via ritual, prayer, storytelling, gaming? And how are ideas around value, gender and the body passed on, upheld and reinforced?

What Walked In is an exhibition of new jewellery and sculpture from the Jewellery—Linking Bodies department of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie that thinks into the concept of the threshold.

What Walked In is part of the fifth edition of OBSESSED! Jewellery Festival with the theme Glow up!

We are heading towards the end of our academic year!

The Gerrit Rietveld Academie is proud to present the work of this year’s graduating artists and designers. Across its three buildings, the Graduation Show 2025 offers a broad constellation of practices and voices, with works spanning performance, installation, jewellery, text, textiles, sound, film, design, and more.
