'La Fête des Bêtes'_____ Enamel lines and patterns take over from gemstones to add a splash of color. Locks emerge from the shadows and take center stage. Oversized mussels and lips turn heads. Double layered rings deceive the eye. Revisited designs from the archive speak of nowadays. Long turns into short, necklaces become bracelets, earrings mix and match. Bending the traditional rules of jewellery-making while winking at surrealism, ‘La Fête des Bêtes’ embodies everything Wouters & Hendrix is so very fond of. And just like in surrealism, the meaning of this collection’s jewellery collages is for the wearer to interpret and make her or his own.
