A film by Kajsa Lindberg and Daniela Hedman

Going to make a video for my scholarship application, so looked online for some examples of people talking about their work. Just spent almost an hour watching this following video. A range of very big people in the contemporary jewellery world are interviewed and its really interesting, especially for me as an ex-student who is kind of struggling to figure out whats going on and what my future path is, to hear them talk about what jewellery means to them, and where they see it going, and some give a little about their past. I love Otto Kunzli in his interview. He is such a passionate man and it is really inspiring to hear him talking about jewellery and his hopes for the future of his school. One thing he said that really struck a cord with me was when he was discussing his disgust at the attitude of students who ask about their employability after they have finished their courses. "Taking the adventure, the risk of a life they don't really know where it leads to, which i think is great, is wonderful, is crazy, is a really crazy thing to do.....employment is the end of creativism, of being creative....without the creating aspect we are not humans anymore".
I just loved that. It kind of gives me a small piece of mind about being confused, and having no idea where Im going to go, and the adventures that will take place. Gives me an acceptance of that, that its okay, and it all will work out.
Which then leads me to one of my favourite quotes...."Everything works out alright in the end...and if its not alright...then its not the end!"
Grab a cup of tea and something to nibble on, as it is quite lengthy :) But worth it for the messages you get out of it
