Tiny Theatres of Still Life in Contemporary Jewellery. Spotlight Artworks by Klimt02
Published: 04.07.2025

Still life —Stilleben in German, Nature morte in French— is the representation of inanimate objects: fruits, flowers, tableware, books, instruments, or even dead animals. It is also an invitation to the depth this genre breathes into the most ordinary things. These silent witnesses, caught between presence and absence, reveal the hidden poetry of material life.
In this Spotlight Artworks, we invite you to discover a selection of pieces that evoke, draw inspiration from, and call upon still life as a language—one that speaks through form, balance, and silence.
