Pomellato Creative Horizons debuts with Polimoda for The Art of Nudo project, celebrating the Nudo collection. A chance for Undergraduate in Fashion Art Direction and Undergraduate in Fashion Styling students to tell the stories of five different jewelry tales through photography, styling and concept realization.
Students created five distinct photographic narratives that reimagine the brand’s iconic Nudo collection through different artistic lenses; Beyond Boundaries examines jewelry as an exploration of the body’s landscape, while Empower in Color uses vibrant gemstones to celebrate feminine identity. Five Angles of Nudo delves into the intimate connection between jewelry and the wearer, as Hue investigates how each gemstone transmutes different emotional states. Completing the artistic vision, Limpido contemplates nature through its similarity to elements like ice and water, demonstrating how jewelry transcends adornment to become artistic expression.
Pomellato CEO Sabina Belli emphasized that the partnership embodies Pomellato’s dedication to artistic boldness, comparing the students’ fresh perspectives to the genesis of Nudo itself; “just as Nudo broke traditional jewelry conventions over 20 years ago, these young artists bring their own creative spirit to interpreting our icon.”Â
This experience with Pomellato allows students to work with high-quality jewelry to create professional-level images while facing the challenge of integrating their creative vision with that of the brand, culminating in their works being exhibited at Pomellato’s Florence boutique and shared across digital platforms.
