SUGANDH MAKWANA

SUGANDH MAKWANA

Cluster Contemporary Jewellery Exhibitor | December 2024

Sugandh Makwana, a designer and collaborator in boundary-crossing jewellery, is renowned for her deeply reflective style, which bridges tradition and innovation while being enriched with cultural sensitivity and personal storytelling. Born in India and shaped by her experiences at Central Saint Martins, Sugandh explores unconscious biases and highlights the often-overlooked yet significant cultural elements that subtly shape one's personality.

Her journey in jewellery began with a focus on examining cultural biases, evolving into the inclusive, cross-cultural narrative she embraces today. Growing up amidst India’s rich cultural tapestry, from daily rituals to grand celebrations, and later moving to London for her master's degree, Sugandh developed a profound appreciation for cultural nuances. While studying design, she delved into the intersection of art and psychology, particularly how the subconscious mind mirrors cultural influences.
