Tomas Miskovic, – Unexpected Jewelry – Heritage ring.

Contemporary Art Jewelry Exhibition & Conference

“Without an audience, without the presence of spectators, these jewels would not fulfil the function for which they came into being. The viewer, then, is the ultimate artist. His sight, heart, mind – fusing with and grasping with greater or lesser understanding the intent of the creator – gives them life.”

—  Salvador Dalí

The Narrative Space of Art

The mission of Inflow is to elevate contemporary jewelry as a form of wearable art, emphasising its narrative power and cultural significance. The exhibition serves as a platform for innovative artists worldwide, fostering dialogue, inspiring creativity, and connecting audiences with the profound messages embedded in contemporary jewelry.

Each year, an open call invites artists to create works around a specific theme, encouraging creativity and dialogue while contemporary jewelry inspires rich reflections and meaningful connections among all participants.


Exhibitions are presented in a sophisticated, exclusive artistic environment, offering every visitor an inspiring and refined experience.
