Pearl Grey Revisited by Manon van Kouswijk

Necklace / Abstract

Published: 16.03.2016

Work designed for Klimt02 Gallery in occasion of the exhibition To Recover, Barcelona, October 2015.

The original "Pearl Grey" of 2009 was an assemblage work consisting of found and made elements of porcelain, glass, wood, plastic and pearl. It referenced a traditional cup and saucer of which the cup had been magically replaced by a bead necklace. For this new work I have translated that idea to the typology of a glass 'saucer and cup’. It is again a combination of found and made elements but this time the work is completely transparent; almost like an x-ray of it’s predecessor.
