It seems as if there is a God all the world adulates, Mammon, the God of wealth and greed. Mammon is always present, in everyday life, at all society levels and in every working field.
To receive its favors (=money) individuals act falsely and calculating, stepping on each other and also often denying themselves. In the same way political games within and across the countries are played and the worship of Mammon is at the origin of all the wars, although these are often explained and justified in the name of more noble causes as religion, democracy and freedom.

Serena Holm is a swedish jeweller with a background in Art History and graduated from Göteborg University. The artist is represented by the Röhsska museum and received diverse grants, attesting the quality of her work. Serena Holm also marked her presence in international exhibitions, showing a body of work that seeks out the strange and the unfamiliar to present a new clarity in the end.

Statement

The necklace Nyonye-Ngana is a chain of fortune. It is made out of a collection of talismans from a different part of the world. When facing complex problems, humankind has often put its belief into magic rituals. Nyonye-Ngana is the creator of ants and son of Bumba, the creator god in the religion and mythology of the Kuba of Central Africa. After creating the ants Nyonye-Ngana died. To honor him, the ants went deep in the earth for dark soil to bury him and transformed the barren sands at the earth's surface. Ant colonies are described as superorganisms because the ants appear to operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony. Ant societies have a division of labour, communication between individuals, and an ability to solve complex problems. To survive further millions of years we have also to collaborate across the countries in order to keep our soil fertile and our air breathable.
/ Serena Holm

My self-deception is that I create in order to understand and that the final end of it all might be wisdom.
This means that I deliberately seek out the strange, the unfamiliar, even the unknowable, as subjects for my novels and trust my imagination to illuminate them to the point where both I and the reader can see them with a new clarity. The writers I admire most seem to have this kind of goal: to comprehend experience distant from their own, in nature, place and time, and to let the extraordinary cast new light on the quotidian.
/ Rose Tremain
