Collier Sofie
25,5 x 21 x 2cm
The collier is filled with lead and sits around your neck with the weight of an animal.
We use nature as raw material, as matter to which we give form. Are we conscious of
this when we wear our fur coats ? A mink coat made up of 200 minks, would put a
weight 1400 kilos upon our shoulders. We live off of Nature; that is essential.
With my work I hope to make people realize the value and the origins of nature materials.
