Nanna Melland: The feeling of Disgust as a guide to enlightenment

About Lecture

In this talk I will share how disgust and aversion became a read thread in my process, both personally ass well with my jewellery. With a personal curious mind, I asked some simple questions, which over time revealed to me small, but important insights of life and my own nature, as well as the jewellery I make.

“From saving the world to being in the world.”
