Intro
Plastic trawl netballs have come loose from fishing boats and have drifted around the sea before they got washed ashore, either whole or crushed into pieces. In this solo show Opphav (Origins) by Philipp Spillmann, a selection of jewellery is exhibited made out of plastic netballs found along the northern Norwegian coast. The material itself leads the artist's working process to the final storytelling creations.
