Non Reactive Saucepan Dutch Oven

CONCEPT 2

"From the history of things, it appears that form of time, there emerges a portrait of collective identity, be it a tribe, or class, or nation. The history of the objects can be represented as if the wires or lines genealogical or formal sequences, and also the history of each is linked to that of others. "
George Kluber


The second concept also uses the web site of ' AIDOS - Italian Association for Women in Development ( http:// www.aidos.it/ ) as a carrier system.

The concept provides a collection of jewelry that, in addition to raising awareness about the scourge of female genital mutilation (FGM) , creating a bridge between the countries where this practice is the West with its immigrant communities , aims to create micro-local economies involving women undergoing the practice.

It is assumed the wire bonding as a plot, as part of a network connection or development of a story, as a "guide
solution and in the chaos of existence," as the basic unit of natural textile fibers, and then an element of tradition cultural and social tool for survival and development of peoples,
link between different cultures. This wire becomes
generator tool for women who weave
and shape their ideas, feelings and experiences, revisit their traditions
filled with meaning, imagination intertwine their lives, giving it shape.
A thread that closes, and becomes a jewel, as a path to conclude
, symbol of life and its cycle, with its consequential events.

are arranged along the edge of the pieces created by these violated women, each representing a important event of their lives:
birth, falling in love, first sexual intercourse,
illness, childbirth, female genital mutilation, violence, dowry, marriage, the loss of someone, and so on.
Each piece is created by local craftsmen, very different history and geographical location, with the support of creative workshops run by local operators or not.
In this way they create micro-local economies as a small opportunity to emancipation from poverty and underdevelopment
for these women, and you try to make their address and
superare i propri traumi, dissacrare le regole di una società di stampo patriarcale, e venire istruite circa la gravità di situazioni cui soggiacciono, laddove serve ed è possibile.
Rispettando le tradizioni artigianali si consente il mantenimento della loro identità culturale e sociale, si evitano forzature assolutamente poco produttive, e si danno in mano a queste donne gli strumenti che meglio conoscono, per una totale libertà di espressione.
Questi “pezzi-eventi” sono i tasselli pubblici di varie storie private, narratori di territori interiori e geografie indefinite da esplorare, terreni di sperimentazione tecnica e concettuale, ancore
di salvataggio.

Sul sito web, as well as an impressive documentation
about the status of women in the world and the violence they perpetrated, there are the stories of these women, their thoughts and their products that are affordable: You can buy "events" more women and mixed together, at the bottom of these threads, these stories run parallel, meet, intertwine,
accompany, resemble one another.
The various parts and assembled products will be assembled by the buyer
on a preset, which can, for example, be composed of transparent spheres to fill or "accommodation" to be attached to each other. Another hypothesis is

expand i laboratori creativi , di supporto
al progetto, anche alle realtà a noi più familiari: creare laboratori
ad hoc , gestiti da associazioni quali l’AIDOS, per le comunità di immigrati in Europa (nelle quali è tuttora presente la pratica delle mutilazioni, insieme a moltissime altre forme di violenza, sottomissione e limitazione della libertà personale) e per qualsiasi altra donna che abbia subito episodi di violenza o traumi legati
al proprio corpo e alla propria sessualità (ad esempio un cancro
al seno o all’utero, la perdita di un figlio, un aborto e così via).
Si tratta di “laboratori terapeutici”
to face his own demons and to heal the wounds groped through the manual, doing,
collaboration and sharing its history, the creation of jewelry that are
scars that others will move on, battles that "I" I won.

As with the previous concept, the jewel
act as word of mouth, and you can participate actively in discussions and be constantly updated through the website and, specifically,
sections devoted to the project.
Wearing this jewelry will be like wearing the skin of another individual, be part of its history, but share the joys
particularly pain, understanding the way.

CONCEPT 1

"Women are the guardians of life. Women, silenced.
Women broken, trampled and deleted because the guardians of life. "


The first concept proposes a jewel / jewelry collection that changes depending on input received from a website.
The website in question is that of ' AIDOS - Italian Association for Women in Development ( http://www.aidos.it/ ), an association that deals with the rights of women, mainly in developing countries.

The idea is to have a jewel, changing, "warn its owner" of news about the theme for which it was created: the female genital mutilation (FGM) .
Jewel may be an elastic material such as silicone or a soft material, and change its shape in different ways, depending on whether "good or bad news" may swell or shrivel (withdrawal, not deflate), could light up with different patterns of flashing or colored with warm or cold, may change the surface texture with more or less aggressive or be crossed by streams of colored light.

Assuming the project site has a database, public and searchable , with extensive documentation about the problem
and constantly updated news about the "achievements" of the Association:
- testimonials and / or new cases in women / girls / girls saved from mutilation in developing countries and in immigrant communities in Europe;
- creation of new centers for the sexual and reproductive health,
and education of women and girls respect;
- improvement of family planning centers and centers for maternal and child health
;
- planning and / or implement new programs in Africa and Europe, for the elimination of gender violence and the abandonment of practice of female genital mutilation;
- new partnerships for the establishment of documentation centers, information (with thematic campaigns, conferences, events, etc.).
and printing rights women;
- new projects in design, architecture, graphic design, art, fashion, etc.. concerning the plight of FGM;
- new training courses on gender issues in different policy areas for local and non
- birth and / or development of micro-local economies, such as the creation of circuits
entrepreneurship female
- birth and / or development of centers for job creation;
- approval of policy measures, laws and / or allocation of adequate resources;
- new negotiations successfully concluded;
- birth and / or development centers education and education for boys and girls, including scholarships for the effective exercise of the right to education;
- any initiative aimed at the problem.

The site contains also the "defeat", the targets are not met, the funds have not yet been found, the initiatives that have not had good results / outcomes, the villages where operators have failed, in short, all areas where you have
still engage and work for you to create, or take root at all, an awareness of gender relations, the specific needs of women
and conditions of violence to which they are subject.

From the moment the jewel "signals" a "news", revealing
an event or a new connection, the "owner" can refer
il sito, ed essere sempre aggiornato, intervenendo con commenti o proposte, arricchendolo di immagini, dando un po di sè stesso; potrà altresì pubblicizzare il sito creando, in tal modo, una rete di condivisione di informazioni, aggiungendo un’importante tassello
ad una, più che mai necessaria, opera di sensibilizzazione di massa.
Altro importante elemento di comunicazione è il gioiello stesso che, grazie al suo carattere altamente innovativo (per forma e tecnologia), stimolerà interesse e curiosità nell’”altro”, generando un inevitabile passaparola che, come è noto, è la miglior forma
di comunicazione.
Le forme di comunicazione non verbale sono, in molti casi, più efficienti poichè più dirette: coinvolgono, infatti, le nostre emozioni più viscerali che, se opportunamente stimolate, sopraffanno qualsiasi altro senso.
Si tratta comunque di un’“arma a doppio taglio” poichè questa forma di comunicazione sensoriale necessita di essere contestualizzata per essere compresa. Qui entra inevitabilmente in gioco il proprietario dell’oggetto che, interagendo con gli altri, è portatore di conoscenza, e fautore di una rete di condivisione attorno al problema.
Il gioiello/i richiede, infatti, la partecipazione diretta dell’utilizzatore: un “oggetto-embrione” che scommette sulla sua capacità di sopravvivenza nel momento stesso del suo iniziale incontro con il portatore, e su quest’ultimo basa il suo cammino.
Questo concept riguarda una tipologia di gioiello intesa come “oggetto-evento/manifesto” , un prodotto la cui nascita, linfa vitale e senso stesso di esistenza sono consequenziali all’evolversi
degli eventi: determinati e determinanti.

Mucus Or Undigested Food In The Stool

MAPPA CONCETTUALE - ARTICOLAZIONE CONCEPTS >> MUTILAZIONI GENITALI FEMMINILI + ORNAMENTO

"Innovation in the fickle world of taste is linked to the fundamental changes necessary for living, following the mutation of anthropological behavior . [...] [...] An alteration of the function historically determined the future shape seems logical function full of new meanings. It seems to be at the same time an innovative object and ethnic heritage, the decoration of a future space tribe and the disappearance of an ancient tribe of Antarctica a stranger. "
Philippe Daverio






Ornaments accompagnano l'uomo dalla notte dei tempi.
Il desiderio di decorare il corpo, in particolare, è atavico: abbiamo testimonianze a riguardo in tutte le civiltà primitive ed in ogni cultura. Le tecniche utilizzate sono molto diverse, vanno dal tatuaggio al cutting, dal piercing alla produzione di monili.
Il mio interesse si rivolge proprio a quest'ultima tipologia: i gioielli, in particolare quelli creati con materiali eterocliti o in metalli non preziosi.

“Il significato dell'ornamento e dell' ornamento-gioiello è mutevole, testimonia fedelmente la cultura in cui nasce, documenta ogni mutamento stilistico e sociale.
Nonostante its omnipresence ornament had a destiny controversial at certain times was considered unnecessary, artificial, while in others, essential, fundamental.
ornament in contemporary society is seen as a sign of identification, which determines a membership, then useful symbol to the communication of ideas and values.
Even the jewelry involved in this meaning, and are no longer considered a status symbol, but style symbol : elements to communicate their tastes, their own aesthetic and even its values, the jewels are not just symbols indicators social status, but are individual choices, personal values.
This new trend was born in the 60s of the twentieth century in the field of artistic jewelry: jewelry search were the result of a strong desire to experiment, embracing new forms, investigating new forms, unusual materials and innovative techniques or modernizing older styles. Each style
developed a well-defined inclination poetic, cultural and ideological, with the precise intent of expressing a different view of the ornament for the body.
This shift in perception (especially abroad) was traced with the transition from Modernism, a period of strong ideologies, the Postmodernism , kingdom of weak thought, up to the contemporary thinking , a period in which it is increasingly the need of individual expression and appreciation of social values. From
90s in various productive sectors, from design to fashion, from music to food to publishing, there is a widespread new practice of self, created by the renewal of the applied arts: a model of design , production and, more often than not, that it is for promoting and selling the same author. Have multiplied many small businesses that have their value added in combination creativity and "know do "and trying to deal with contemporary language and with new markets.
Even the jewelry, especially those using non-precious metals, has found new growth through new forms of business: know-how traditional married creativity to produce contemporary jewelry, chosen by an attentive audience the communicative aspect of the ornament ".
Source: Generation Jewellery. Ornament in contemporary non-precious metals and auto-production, will gradually, thesis project.

analysis ornament for the body and its existing material, it is evident that significant changes in concepts of form and function over the centuries: what remains unchanged is its indispensability by man as an element of communication and social belonging.

"A chipped stone, a tool of the Stone Age, tells us a lot about the needs of the first human beings to dig roots, skinning animals, scraping fur. Over time, then the stone was chipped and further work becomes more pointed, and any modification yet another soon followed to meet new requirements. And with the creation of any new instrument, humanity discovered new possibilities of use. New tools create new needs which, in turn, produce new objects. People love
"objects": it is part of our nature. Maybe an animal instinct, but how we like our things. People are surrounded by their subjects: they are useful or decorative, beautiful, ugly, common or rare, we can not help but sow everywhere traces of our identity. Traces of culture, national identity, political ideology, religious affiliation and sexual orientation. Our items reflect who we really are and who we want to be. Just think of the process by which we decide what to keep and what to throw. We give importance to the objects that have never been touched by those who touch all the time, the most useful or most useless?
We can turn them into fetishes, impregnated with magic and memories, sexual or religious power, to make them become objects of worship, desire and fear with which food passions and obsessions.
[...] These are the tools we need to shape our lives. "
Peter Gabriel

Jewel communicate the aesthetic world, sensory, its author's ideological, but also those, then you will have to wear it.
It is a product that fluctuates between art and design, unique and mass production, decoration and abstraction. The passion for the subject and its relationship with the body are the red threads that connect the different areas. Rossella Tornquist for "the jewel has the uncanny ability to influence the field upon which it interacts, the body, the dress, is apparently formal influence, but above all spiritual, reveals much more of a dress the intimate microcosm of those who choose and wear. It 's a small object in proportion to the space which enters into a relationship, yet knows how to constrain the observer's point of view. "

A gem is not only worn, brought him, felt him to be a jewel to be interpreted. You have to play and entertain, it must be treated with care, like a second or a third skin. If
is challenging the better: the game can become more risky, and more fun.
E 'disruptive charm a jewel because it has the ability to evoke, to talk about themselves and others.
Each piece could be a room: in every furniture, objects, scents of a given period, a specific character, atmosphere. A story.

"I want a strike where to meet everyone. A strike of arms, legs, hair, strike someone in each body. I want a strike di operai, di colombe, di autisti, di fiori, di tecnici, di bambini, di medici, di donne.
Voglio un grande sciopero, che arrivi sino all'amore. Uno sciopero dove si fermi tutto, l'orologio, le fabbriche, lo stabilimento, le scuole, l'autobus, gli ospedali, la strada, i porti.
Uno sciopero di occhi, di mani, di baci.
Un grande sciopero dove non sia permesso respirare, uno sciopero dove nasca il silenzio per ascoltare i passi del tiranno che si allontana".

“A mutilated woman mirrors a mutilated world. A wounded woman is a wounded family, and a wounded nation. It is time to end this heinous practice”.
Joy Keshi Walker, Coordinator W.I.C.S.A.
(Women Issues Communication Services Agency)

The AIDOS - Italian Association for Women in Development ( http://www.aidos.it/ ) is an association that deals with the rights women, mainly in developing countries.


MISSION
AIDOS collaborates with partner organizations in different countries for the joint construction of projects with specific needs of women and to develop shared strategies as these needs are met.
But the resolution of specific problem of a given community, necessarily limited, is not sufficient: you must have a positive influence on government policies to help improve the living conditions of all women and people of the country concerned.
Therefore, all projects AIDOS also provide an important awareness-raising activities and information.

WHO 'AIDOS
Our journey began in 1981 with the founding of' Italian Association for Women in Development (AIDOS) , an association of women and at the same time, non-governmental organization cooperation , recognized in 1992 by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as an institution eligible a gestire fondi pubblici per la realizzazione di progetti di cooperazione allo sviluppo.
Fin dalla sua fondazione, AIDOS ha lavorato - nei paesi in via di sviluppo, in Italia e nelle sedi internazionali - per costruire, promuovere e tutelare i diritti, la dignità, il benessere e il progresso di tutte le donne.

campaign is intended to include issues related to FGM, the main issues to be addressed on the agenda of the European Union, giving voice to women who are victims of this practice or who are at risk. According to UNFPA, United Nations Fund for Population, each year three million children and adolescents in the world in danger of being subjected to this practice.
FGM have been widely documented in Africa, Asia and the Middle East and are currently been found in Europe, where they live, according to the European Parliament, 500,000 women have undergone FGM.
Often, girls living in EU countries are conducted to their places of origin, such as during summer vacation, to be mutilated.

The FGM is a violation of basic human rights such as:
- the right to physical and mental
- the right to achieve the highest standards of health
- the right to freedom from all forms of Discrimination Against Women ( including violence against women)
- the right to freedom from torture or cruel inhuman and degrading
-
children's rights - and in extreme cases the right to life. Through actions

advocacy at the EU institutions, the campaign aims to ensure the adoption of a shared strategy to stop FGM, to provide the migrants of African origin who have undergone FGM adequate care, protect women who flee their countries for fear of being mutilated and promote an international mobilization that recognizes the need to join forces to end the practice.

5 are the key points proposed by the strategy:
- gathering data on the prevalence of FGM in Europe
- to provide appropriate care and to tailor services to the health needs of women who have undergone FGM in Europe
- to improve the security mechanisms against violence against women and children
- identifying clear guidelines for providing asylum to women threatened by FGM
- dare priorità all’abbandono delle MGF negli interventi di cooperazione allo sviluppo con i paesi terzi dove la pratica è prevalente.
 
A sostegno della strategia, la campagna sta mobilitando
i parlamentari europei, in vista della creazione di un gruppo parlamentare informale sulle MGF.
