The artist utilizes a closely held story to communicate something both personal and universal - an easy and usual task for jewelry. Koen Jacobs silver skeletons embody childhood drawings and they ask the questions - how do we balance who we are with who we were; when we look back are we seeing ourselves bathed in rose coloured light; and if we return to those moments, would we kill our darlings.
