Statement

Occasionally, the realm of jewellery and commodities come together very closely...
Objects of use often become intimately important and indispensable, just as it might happen to a piece of jewellery that is worn day in, day out. What people keep and wear often contains a huge emotional value next to its material one.
Wearing jewellery on the body is the most intimate, but also direct form of showing this specific relationship to an object.
By using materials, shapes, fragments and typical patterns out of another daily context as the base for her jewellery, Gésine Hackenberg aims transfer their meaning and emotional impact through her work.
Her materials of choice are precious metals, antique ceramics and glass, as well as the very tough and resistant Japanese Urushi lacquer. These all come from the interlocking theme of household, kitchen, table and food culture.
