Bio
Responding to architectural constructions or mechanical objects, the work of Ute Röseler has always been technical. Having received her Advanced Diploma in Perth and the Bachelor at ANU in Canberra, Australia, it was a matter of course that her master studies at the University of Applied Science in Düsseldorf were concerned with exceeding the use of inlay as a merely decorative technique.Statement
Inlay as constructional principle of designThroughout my master degree I have exceeded the use of traditional Damascene (metal inlay)* as a merely decorative technique to function as a cold joint. Adjusting single parameters to suit the new application, it is possible to permanently connect two dissimilar metals, when soldering, riveting or welding are not feasible. Utilising neither heat nor glue, I have proven it to be successful in securely adhering brooch findings or setting stones into the base.
* Metal inlay sees a softer metal hammered into an undercut groove of a harder metal base.
