The exhibition ‘Kukas. Homenagem à Geometria’ is inaugurated on the day that the author of the first renovation of the formal language of jewellery in Portugal turns 95.

This showing presents recently created pieces, diverse objects and materials, ranging from necklaces, pendants and brooches, to earrings, cufflinks and bracelets, made of gold, silver, baroque pearls, agate, shells, rock crystal, lapis-lazuli and mother-of-pearl, remodelling the traditions of jewellery with features of contemporaneity.

In 1963 Kukas had her first exhibition in Lisboa.

Sixty years later, the artist once again presents jewellery as a hybrid art that combines drawing, sculpture, painting, architecture and design.
