We paused before a House that seemed / A Swelling of the Ground, is an exhibition featuring the work of Elise Hoebeke, Saskia Van der Gucht and Irma Földényi.
Artist list
Irma Földényi, Elise Hoebeke, Saskia Van der Gucht
The show focuses on contemporary jewellery as a reflective and investigative practice, with specific attention to research and theory developed at Sint Lucas Antwerpen. Following its successful presentation in Munich, the Antwerp edition during Obessed! Festival offers a fresh opportunity to present this content-rich and carefully curated exhibition to a wider audience.
Sand and brick, everyday materials that we easily take for granted, are handled with care and transformed into precious objects. What can a single brick or a handful of sand tell us about resources and standardisation, about their value and the time it took the earth and the people to shape them? Measured precisely, cut like a precious stone, cast in Delft clay and held in diamond packaging; objects with granular surfaces are handcrafted as carriers for possible answers to this question.
Vernissage: Friday 21 November, 17:00–20:00 at ArtTelex (Oude Beurs 39-41, Antwerp).
Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 November 2025, 11:00–18:00
