Description
The inspiration of Acanthus as years before, coming again in our created world. The beautiful leaves of the plant Acanthus Mollis made in different materials. To search loans from the nature is not new. Today we call it bionics, or biomimetic. As a scientific discipline it deals systematically with the technical execution. The conversion of diverse methods, processes and principles of biological systems. Also it deals with interaction between living and non-living elements. The transformation is about the symbiosis of these two systems. The transformation of nature in art. These nature creations transform our human being, our inner life and soul. I was inspired by natural stones and biological forms. I have transformed the form of plants and animals in jewellery pieces. The open form of the pendant hides micro granules in gold colour almost like a flower its seeds. In contrast to the soft light wood is the shiny golden colour of the body.
Acanthus necklace is a one of a kind piece.
Silver and gold. Glass and gems. Construction and emotion. Deconstruction and structure. In and between. Forms twist their way out from the inside. They lift off the skin of the jewelry piece, exposing the structure, they create a second skin around the new volume. The structure breaks down, the surface fills up with forms that are then put under tension by being twisted to each other and to the piece. Between inside and out, original and addition, structure and facade. Pure form is interrogated in a way that reveals its twisted and splintered structure. This apparent chaos actually constructs the body of the jewelry pieces. The internal disorder produces the bar even while splitting it. It is actually constructed out of fragments of that world. The surface is a side effect of the dialogue between internal twisted geometry and external geometry.
