Data capture was the inspiration for Yang’s
‘Flaneur’ collection, in which she aimed to
capture 2D data from digital health trackers
and visualise them through a 3D-printing
technique. Thus her jewellery designs
become unique to each wearer. Would most
like to work with: Alexander McQueen.

The smoothness of resin gives it a tactile
quality that’s perfectly suited to jewellery
design, a key factor in Wang’s approach. This
earring is part of her ‘Insecure’ collection, and
can also be worn as a ring. Would most like
to work with: A fashion designer who wants
to explore the idea of beautiful, functional
jewellery. songwang jewellery.com
The magical light play of mirrors inspired
Copíková to construct her own refractive
material, layering mirror fragments with rock
crystal and gold, such as in this two-piece
brooch, designed to lead both viewer and
wearer to question where the glow is coming
from. Would most like to work with:
Olafur Eliasson. [email protected]
