ARTICLE22 jewelry is made from two of the most abundant metals on earth, aluminum and iron, which were generated inside collapsing stars. The iron found in our blood is the same that forms the tanks and weapons of the global arms industry. Mother Earth and the elements that course through our veins unite us all. Yet humans expend more than double forging these materials into a business of destruction instead of the business of creation - of jewelry. Civilians in conflict zones of the present like Ukraine and past like Laos are also united by the threat of lasting unexploded ordnance. Each REVIVAL pendant contributes to MAG (Mines Advisory Group).

Stanislav Drokin is an acclaimed contemporary artist who makes one of a kind fine jewelry pieces. Based in Kharkiv, Ukraine, Drokin uses existing and invented methods to create jewelry including detonated shrapnel pieces from around the region of his hometown.

The war changed my life, changed my priorities and values. It was necessary for me to adapt and survive, to save the team, the studio and the gallery, and most importantly, to be useful creatively.

Celebrated artist, Stanislav Drokin creates beautiful jewelry with detonated shrapnel found around his hometown in Ukraine.

My creative efforts are aimed at supporting Ukraine [and] its people [and] calling for the unification of the entire civilized and democratic world against wars, dictatorships, the past, for the future life of all humanity.

My priorities in art are harmony, emotions and uniqueness! I hope that jewelry from the Revival collection will not leave Americans indifferent, will find its place in the collections of museums and galleries, and will become a symbol of peace and harmony, preserving memories for future generations. 


Stanislav Droken: Contemporary Artist | Jeweler

Based in Kharkiv, Ukraine, Drokin uses existing and invented methods to create jewelry: from traditional and autors to modern 3D technology depending on the creative goal. Always testing limits, Drokin holds three victories in international competitions held in the USA and two in Europe.

 

Drokin’s singular designs are positioned in the context of the art market which values the individuality and rarity of his work created with vision, intuition, and the utmost mastery. Working during a period of global change and digital transformation, Drokin’s role has always advanced a creative conversation between the intangible world, cultural heritage, and the contemporary environment.

Since the war in Ukraine, Drokin started the “Forget-Me-Not” Project experimenting with bomb fragments, adorning them with blue metal flowers to raise funds for those in need and bring Ukraine's victory closer. The pieces from the “Forget-Me-Not” collection are intended for people, organizations, and companies that provide support to Ukraine, making an invaluable contribution to the victory of Ukraine.
