About this listen
In this Cantonese episode, we sit down with Athena, a jewellery designer who transitioned from a theory-based education and full-time job in Hong Kong to a practice-driven Master’s program in the UK at Birmingham City University (BCU).
Athena shares:
- Why she left a stable career to study abroad
- The biggest contrasts between Hong Kong’s and the UK’s education styles
- How BCU fosters creativity through studio access, competitions and real-world exposure
- Her experience representing her class and influencing the graduation exhibition
- Meeting world-class artists at the Munich Jewellery Fair and how it shaped her artistic direction
- How she transformed recycled aluminium cans into a statement jewellery collection inspired by Birmingham’s street waste
This episode is more than just about jewellery—it’s about rethinking creativity, finding your voice through international education, and embracing cultural diversity.
