Enchanted Forest by Margaret Greenhill

Artist list

Margaret Greenhill

Woven silver, woods, petals and dried leaves, recycled material; art and jewelry merge in Margaret Greenhill's work, handmade pieces that transmit the magic of moments and a meditative sensation of the present ... the extended minute and the suspension of time manifest in the approach that reminds us of the creation of the universe…

With this show, I would like to convey the value of simple things ... there is beauty in everything, even in spider webs and wood gnawed by termites ... it is a call for attention to the small, the details, the everyday, that which we almost do not see. It is an invitation to allow time to enjoy ... to be enchanted, explains the young artist.

One of the characteristics that define Greenhill's work is experimentation, as she explains: The technique for me is linked to the form follows the function, which is one of the premises of the Bauhaus; constructive technical coherence at the service of the concept, which is achieved when form and function converge in a visual poetry . There are no whimsical elements, there are technical answers to the concept or sensation that you want to convey.
