‘The material
is vehicle of my thoughts’
For now I don’t work often with precious metals but prefer to
use materials which are less burdened with traditions of jewellery.
The material seduces and asks questions.
‘Meaning’ plays an important role, though I don’t
want the pieces to be too easy to read.
Looking for an own language, I explore the limits of what can be called
jewellery.
