Dovile Bertulyte, a Lithuanian born jewellery designer based in London graduated from Middlesex University Ba (Hons), Jewellery and Accessories course in 2013. Her newly launched collection ‘Phobia of darkness’ demonstrates commitment to creating exceptional, unique designs and luxurious wearable jewellery to be treasured for ever.
“There is always a narrative in the jewellery I create - every piece, every collection has a story to tell. At the current stage of my creative work I am analysing human phobias and bringing their emotion to my pieces of jewellery, the collection portrays the imaginary horror and fear that can be attractive too. I would like these stories to be heard by a bigger audience. After all, art needs to be shared and appreciated. I believe that with Nude Jewellery's help my dream could become reality. Thank you for giving me the chance to introduce myself and participate in this contest.”
Commenting on winning the competition Dovile said, “I feel really happy and excited about winning! Thank you so much for this opportunity.”
Nikki Galloway, owner of Nude Jewellery, said of the competition, “Dovile is such a deserved winner, her work is unusual and unique and fit's in perfectly with the Nude ethos, it's different enough to stand out and beautifully quirky, something we love here at Nude Jewellery”
Speaking about the future of the competition Nikki added, “It's been a really successful year with 1,444 votes in total and the response we've had just proves that there is a need for a competition like this for graduates. We are committed to promote new designers and alongside our Graduates in the Spotlight have launched our Featured Designer, a monthly event promoting both new and established jewellery designers”
Dovile Bertulyte 'Phobia of darkness' will be Nude Jewellery's Featured Designer during June and will be available in-store until the end of August.
