365 PIŠKOTOV, exhibition with tasting
Saturday, 11 May 2024, at 11.00
Exhibition Izola Secondary School in DRAT Gallery, Ljubljanska street 20, Izola
Students of Izola Secondary School, under the guidance of Prof. Mojca Žnidaršič and designer Sandra
Kocjančič, for the opening of the Slovenian Jewellery Week in Izola, they will bake 365 biscuits, which they will then combine into
a large delicious necklace. This unique necklace will symbolise the days of the year that we will enjoy together.
The idea for this unique creation dates back to 2022, when designer Sandra Kocjančič asked students
visual arts and design students to each create their own circle using any technique they wanted, representing
a day, a period of time or a cycle that marked them in their lives. This is how the urban necklace was created
The Giantess. Connected circles by different artists formed a giant necklace that represented our
connectedness and strength in coming together as a community, the power of joy, one of Europe's fundamental values.
Mentors: Prof. Mojce Žnidaršič and designer Sandra Kocjančič
