WINNER

“AMALGAM”
2026

We are delighted to announce Mónica Pérez as the recipient of the SILVER Festival Award, presented by The Gallery of Art in Legnica and selected from the jewellery exhibition CLUSTER AMALGAM 2026.

The Gallery of Art in Legnica is the organiser of the Legnica Jewellery Festival SILVER, one of Poland’s leading contemporary jewellery events. The Festival brings together international artists and explores jewellery through exhibitions, competitions and curated projects.

✨ Mónica Pérez has been selected for a solo exhibition at the Gallery of Art in Legnica, which will take place as part of the SILVER Festival within the next two years.

The selection recognises Monica’s work:
“For showcasing the delicacy of form and abstraction in hard materials, and for not forgetting space in design. For successfully combining construction and deconstruction, and for jewellery that is close to painting, sculpture and performance, as well as ecology.”

The award was selected by Justyna Teodorczyk, Director of the Gallery of Art in Legnica and main curator of the Legnica Jewellery Festival SILVER. Justyna is a culture researcher, art curator, mentor and educator, and has curated numerous jewellery exhibitions within the Festival since 2006.

Congratulations to Monica Perez, and thank you to the Gallery of Art in Legnica and Justyna Teodorczyk for this wonderful recognition and opportunity!
