Cartier

Located in the heart of Barcelona, the exhibition Beaut&eacute;s du Monde takes its title from Cartier's high jewellery collection, which celebrates the diversity of beauty. In order to highlight three major pieces of the collection, three immersive 3D videos were produced. Each of them revisits and reinterprets the signature of the piece from which it is inspired, with an emphasis on the emotional power it contains.
