Intro
(...) Fundamentally I work for myself. It is like committing myself to a colour. With heartblood created. And sometimes I need jewellery making just like food and drink. Inspiration comes often from outside, but the voice in my tummy is stronger.This voice is carrying me further, almost always. I am addicted to this voice. (...)

Artist list

Therese Hilbert
A characteristic of Therese Hilbert's work in recent years is their hollow shape. Like the brooches, depicted here in actual size, with their small, protruding apertures resembling the independently moving eyes of a troll or robot. Or inviting us in, with a generous welcome. Jugs and jars are a familiar metaphor for man's physical and psychological presence. These functional, elegant silver objects combine their strong, concrete shape with hidden, mysterious content. They are imbued with the thoughts of those who wear and view them, with memories, desire and hope.
