We
humans seem always fascinated of gold. The luxury material highlights
a desire for power and status . Golden brilliance dazzles and relives.
At same time we know that the material world don´t give us happiness.
Beyond escapism with material items, people look for spirituality.
The individual is in focus and the ways to find well-being are many. To
find ourselves in the nature is one way. But what is nature? Everyone
who
gets stucked in a spider web wants to get rid of it. We also know how
difficult it is.
Jewellery
is intimate in the way that we wear it close to our hearts and fill it
with meaning. It is also intimate because it requires the viewer to come
close to the objects and to penetrate their meaning to get the entire
content. This requires not only courage but also a willingness to understand
both as a viewer and as a wearer.
