Captain Wood by Tabea Reulecke

Brooch

My journeys to the north, the south, the east and the west are my inspirations. There I find exciting stories and odd materials, which I take back to my workshop, and that is were the known and the unknown meet: A cow horn and that of an antelope. Wood of a walnut tree and wood of an olive tree. Colors from pigments and colors from glass stones. I build the bridges that connect my findings.
A story provides my aim and the outcome of the final form is determined through the process of making. In a workshop, amid horns and bones, pieces of wood, stones, metals, colors, paint brushes, found objects and gifts, I set to work; trusting my imagination, my tools and the freedom around me.
