Karin Roy Andersson. Necklace: The Clownfish, 2009. Silver, enamel. What is your opinion of the Act of Succession? 
. The clownfish is nowadays common in aquariums in Sweden. They have become known and popular a lot because of the film “Finding Nemo”. What most people do not know about them is their remarkable hierarchy system. The shoal consists of one reproducing couple where the female is the largest one and the one with the highest precedence. The other fish are no fertile males. But what happens if for example he female dies? Well, among the clownfish the second largest fish, the fertile male, gets bigger, changes sex and take the role as the new matriarch. At the same time one of the smaller fish becomes sexually mature and grows a bit to place himself in the position as responsible for the growth of the colony..

Karin Roy Andersson. Bracelet: The Clownfish, 2011. Silver.

Karin Roy Andersson. Necklace: The Water Bear, 2009. Juniper wood, silver, nylon, diamond.. Burnt, frozen, radiated, raised from the dead – the water bear an evolutionary masterpiece. 
. The water bear is a 0,5 – 1 mm animal. A bit chubby, segmented with eight legs and an amazing survivor. In experiments it has been exposed to 340 degrees of heat, hypothermia, radiation and drought. But in situations where all other creatures give in, the water bear endure. This little animal can go into a state of cryptobiosis, where all the things we normally define as life are shut down. Encapsulated in this state it can slumber waiting for things to get better. It can lie like this for decades until one day when times has changed, the conditions has become better, the spark of life is lit and the water bear wakes up..

Necklace: The Clownfish, 2009
Silver, enamel
What is your opinion of the Act of Succession? 
The clownfish is nowadays common in aquariums in Sweden. They have become known and popular a lot because of the film “Finding Nemo”. What most people do not know about them is their remarkable hierarchy system. The shoal consists of one reproducing couple where the female is the largest one and the one with the highest precedence. The other fish are no fertile males. But what happens if for example he female dies? Well, among the clownfish the second largest fish, the fertile male, gets bigger, changes sex and take the role as the new matriarch. At the same time one of the smaller fish becomes sexually mature and grows a bit to place himself in the position as responsible for the growth of the colony.

Necklace: The Water Bear, 2009
Juniper wood, silver, nylon, diamond.
Burnt, frozen, radiated, raised from the dead – the water bear an evolutionary masterpiece. 
The water bear is a 0,5 – 1 mm animal. A bit chubby, segmented with eight legs and an amazing survivor. In experiments it has been exposed to 340 degrees of heat, hypothermia, radiation and drought. But in situations where all other creatures give in, the water bear endure. This little animal can go into a state of cryptobiosis, where all the things we normally define as life are shut down. Encapsulated in this state it can slumber waiting for things to get better. It can lie like this for decades until one day when times has changed, the conditions has become better, the spark of life is lit and the water bear wakes up.

Statement

The urge to repeat movements over and over again, methodically and resolutely is something that is significant for both my personality and my work - multiplicity and recurrence attracts me. The variations between the details become important creating patterns and rhythms.
Like many others, I find a lot of inspiration in nature; fish, birds, plants and landscapes. The shapes and patterns keep on appearing in my pieces but in a non-figurative way that gives space for own interpretations.

I often work with waste material and for a long time I have been working with plastics collected from garbage containers and ditch-banks. Some years ago a Sami colleague - Monica Blind Påve, introduced me to a new material. An elastic, strong material that’s often not taken care of after the reindeer slaughter and that is in a way also a residual material; reindeer skin. Monica introduced me not only to reindeer skin as a material, but also to the animals, and living and working together with them. The long tradition of leatherwork and the organic, living material makes me think of the root system of my family tree, of heritage and the preservation of craft knowledge.

To me jewellery is communication. The life of a piece starts with an idea or when experimenting with a material. When the finished piece meets an audience another process starts. My experiences are mixed with the thoughts and associations of others and the object develops. The intimate connection to a wearer and a body makes the relation to the recipient very special.

Since 2010 I run Gallery Four, a gallery for contemporary jewellery in Göteborg. The aim is to communicate jewellery art to a broad audience. Four shows exhibitions with artists from all over the world and it is a platform for discussions about art, jewellery, work and inspiration.
