Intro
Vera Siemund's works are always transformations of found objects: photos, architectural fragments, decorative objects, and historical jewelry. Historic ornament and classical references have consistently remained central to the artist’s work, where these elements are reconstructed to give them a contemporary interpretation.

Artist list

Vera Siemund
I am interested in the history of recurring forms and styles in art and where the boundary runs between ‘high and low,’ between the sublime and the banal. I move through the history of art and design in leaps and bounds with recurring preferences. I try to restage images that already have a firm place in our cultural memory.

I saw all my pieces by hand. They are something like prototypes, but they are never reproduced. When I make them, the idea becomes tangible and develops further. I only really understand complex shapes and ornaments when I ‘build’ them.
