Forms, fragments – not as mere pictures of something but as reminiscences,
allowing various associations.
Leaving space to find a very specific connection between the piece and one’s
personal experiences. Possibly tracing down parts of a long lost story through
colors, forms and details carrying it on your body.
I am working with the structure of the silver surface (which is altered through
chasing and reticulation) and the merging of the color nuances of the various
enamels into each other and into the surface. I am interested in what is
happening within this surface, how a certain shape or structure could have originated.
Organic forms inspired by nature have also been important to me in my
photographic work, in my most recent pieces I draw a lot of inspiration
from the “licheni” – Italian for lichen.
