​Whether precious or delicate, rough or synthetic, every stone tells a story – from the velvety pebble of a holiday to the sparkling symbol of a commitment. Memories, emotions, sensuality, symbolism. Or carat, colour, cut, clarity (the 4 Cs that define a diamond’s purity). But interpretations clash. Here, the framework shifts, even shatters. The new exhibition at Hectare Galerie liberates the multifaceted stone from the hierarchies that constrain it, making way for a dialogue between material and method, through the work of ten artists from diverse backgrounds.

​

This exhibition aims to present jewelry in its full diversity - accros concepts, materials, craftmanship, price ranges and traditions. A time picture of what is there. At this point in time, we want to askk what is there under the umbrella of the jewellery scene.

Project with The Pool Amsterdam Jewelry Collective.

​

Self-promotion often feels at odds at these moments in time, so we wanted to shift the spotlight to the collective instead.

This project centers on the idea that transformation can arise through the act of giving attention, intention, and creation to someone else as individual entities inside of a collective structure as a means of metamorphosis.

Metamorphosis grew from mutual care; from recognising that transformation is not a solitary act. Just as jewellery takes on meaning through its wearer, the collective gains depth through each individual.

We as The Pool are not a uniform brand, but facets 

of a shared stone; where in this case each piece reflects the others.

By making for one another or having the other in mind, we embrace the diversity within our group while exploring how identity, support, and metamorphosis can take tangible forms.

Jewellery in this exhibition is not adornment alone; 

it is care, recognition, and transformation.

2025

This edition focuses on jewelry as an autonomous form of artistic expression, where the story behind each piece is as important as the object itself. Each artist displays their work as an installation, with their own approach to meaning, process, and form.

By bringing together different generations and practices (from emerging talent to established names, and from conceptual approaches to traditional craftsmanship), the exhibition paints a vibrant picture of Amsterdam's dynamic jewelry scene and explores what jewelry can be today.

FATA MORGANA shows objects of desire during my solo highlight exhibition at The Pool Jewelry Collective.

For this highlight exhibition I continued developing my 'Desire Spoon', one specific element from my graduation collection Muted, from back in 2015.

The spoons sparkle a certain longing where the subject of the elusiveness of transience keeps returning. 

Additionally new works within existing collections are shown, new developments have taken place.

You are warmly invited to our collective exhibition SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING

Jewellery is a blend of crafts and instincts. Jewellers swim in intricate patterns of material combinations and techniques. Each has its own identity, its own world; But, once in the Pool the strengths merge together and the choreography begins...

After getting a new skin in October with an interior renovation, The Pool will open its doors for our Obsessed! exhibition “Synchronised Swimming” in November.
 

Synchronised Swimming is a team sport, we will host exclusive collaborations between the Pool’s members and their guests. Synchronicities will create a spectacle of fantasy, community & underwater creativity.

​

As part of Obsessed! Jewellery festival, organised by Current Obsession. The opening of our Pool Party is on Wednesday, November 10, from 16:00-19:00. The exhibition runs until the 28th of November.
