The HEAD Geneva graduates in jewellery design are:

  • Florie Dupont, who combines craft techniques from classic jewellery-making, particularly gem setting, with references to 17th-century vanitas art to produce thoroughly contemporary jewellery with a hint of Gothic that is sublimated by the precious stones.
  • Ophélie Sanga, whose fragile jewellery has to be handled roughly before it can be worn, thereby exacerbating the precautionary gesture associated with the notion of precious objects.
  • Noëllie Salguero, who uses her twofold training in traditional jewellery-making and jewellery design to explore unexpected materials such as wood, resin and metals and thus work on memory.
  • Juan Sebstian [selon l’Internet, presque certainement ‘Galan’/Galán’ et non pas ‘Gallan’] Gallan Bello, who focuses on sustainable design by recycling the poorest of industrial waste products, the tin can, which requires tailor-made techniques and instruments to be turned into beauty, either in its natural state or rose-gold plated.
  • Aurore De Geer, who challenges the traditional canons of beauty with jewellery that redesigns the body and the face.
