Statement
My work tells about people and other animals. I tell what people do to each other. I tell what people do to other animals.I am a reporter… It would be so much easier just to turn away from bad and sad sights… But I can´t, for it would change nothing.
With each work, I hope to get people to rethink their own choices. With each thought, I hope to provoke change. To respect nature as a precious System of Life. Not as a money related property, which is only existing to benefit people.
Glass
Glass is something, which looks at the end super cold material, but has needed an enormous amount of warmth along the way of being manufactured. I like it, for it is so fragile. It needs to be handled with the greatest care, or it may easily harm you.
Stones.
Stones contain the memory of time.
Colors.
Each color has a meaning.
a jewellery sculpture = a sculpture which tells about jewelry
