Announcement : WORN STORY 飾.事. - A Photography and Story Exhibition by Obellery Gallery
當聽到珠寶首飾時，大概很多人都會立刻聯想到金錢昂貴物料貴重的珠寶首飾。那您呢？您腦海中出現的第一個聯想是什麼呢？
再稀世的瑰寶尚可用精密的儀器去衡量其客觀市場價值，那當無法再由精密儀器去客觀衡量其價值時，究竟它的價值由誰定義？首飾經過和其主人隨歲月的洗禮，更多被賦予的是一份難以言喻的可貴；可能是一種象徵、一個諾或一份思念，哪怕只是一片粗糙的石製吊墜也能讓人無比動容。
為了展示飾品的另一層意義，Obellery Gallery 夥同《LOUISE》導演和攝影師Stephenie Kay進行了一個多月的故事彙集和拍攝，並誠意的為您展現30多位來自不同背景的人和他們的飾品之間的故事。這場有趣又有重大意義的故事展覽將於2022年2月11日開始，如果您好奇那些表面光鮮亮麗的飾品背後有著什麼意想不到的故事，想知道它們是如何從一間“死”物變為一個有血有淚的“活”物，給我們無聲的細說著它背後的意義和其主人的人生故事，那就不容錯過是次展覽。
Obellery Gallery誠邀你於2月11日至3月11日期間戴著你喜歡的飾品，在這裡和其他有故事的佩戴者交流之餘留下自己的首飾故事，在為飾品寫下一筆美麗走心的邂逅同時；参與這場人與首飾之間關係的探索之旅。期望您可以在這裡收到啟發並在您的飾品中刻下屬於自己的精神拼圖。
It is not uncommon to odorn precious gemstones and historic jewels with admiration, but beyond carats and hallmarks, the sentimental attachments of a piece can bear much greater significance. Who is it that embeds such value?
Through the passing of time with its owner an objects becomes endowed with an indescribable value; it may be a symbol, a promise or a memory, so precious that even a rough stone pendant can be extremely precious.
Each ornament speaks of the culture and zeitgeist in which it was made. It is a trace only possible by the passing of time. In many works lie the inheritance and blessings from ones family. Behind each piece is a story interwoven from both its creator and owner. When you lay out jewelleries that you possess, you will find that they link together forming a blueprint that conveys your most precious secrets, dreams and promises.
In order to explore the more intangible aspects of jewellery design, Obellery Gallery has collaborated with the photographer and film director of《LOUISE》Stephenie Kay. Capturing fascinating stories from over 30 participants of different backgrounds. If you are curious about the stories that lie within, you must not miss the upcoming exhibition.
Obellery Gallery cordially invites you to visit 《Worn Story》, a pop up exhibition that features both stories and photography running from February 11th to March 11th. You are more than welcome to wear your favourite jewellery and share with us the stories that you hold dearest. We hope you will feel inspired by this explorative journey, considering the hidden significance in each of your treasured possessions.
