TIME – The Blue Hour
3 November 2024 until 4 January 2025

The blue hour describes the period in which the sun has already set, shortly after the golden hour, but also shortly before the sun rises. During this time, the light has a magical blue color.
Time is like emptiness; it cannot be represented directly. It has something subjective, is complex and changeable, it is intangible.
If you look at time from the perspective of repetition, the sky serves as orientation: the sun for the daily cycle, the moon for longer phases and the stars for spatial orientation and at the same time for longer periods of time.
Part of my work shows these celestial bodies: the sun appears as a flickering yellow circle, the moon in its changing phases and the stars appear in multifaceted shapes.
All representations are based on the circle as the basic form.
By being able to measure time using the celestial bodies, a framework was created that gave the whole thing regularity, the calendar.
The day brooches represent periods of time and depict the different phases of life as a gradually unfolding process.
At the beginning, four colored dots appear in a white rectangle, each in its own position. Over time, the dots approach each other, grow, merge, rotate, cross the frame, mix and develop increasing complexity. The circle forms the basis of this process and at the same time symbolizes an endless cycle of playing, developing, learning, building and reflecting. The initially small, manageable and orderly events become increasingly complex, interwoven and overlapping, reflecting both the play and the dynamics of life.
Time as a process.

Beautiful City – Light Years
3 November 2024 until 4 January 2025

‘Beautiful City – Light Years’

When wearing jewelry you are a spectator and an actor in one.
You look from a distance and you look from within.
Like the ‘Woman with a Pearl Necklace’ from Vermeer.
Time is an inseparable involved factor.
This lies on the base of these new pieces.
They are made of elementary particles of unsold work of the past years,
like titanium, tantalum and gold strips, pearls, antique coral and my great grandmother’s glass beads, 
and I added new elements and color as well.
So the old pieces keep existing in the past and the new pieces emerge from them.
From ground plans of places they now transition into ground plans of time.
They are born from an empty origin, which means not visible or materialized or organized.
The O, the zero. Origin means the birth of sunrise.
This is the beginning of time. From here all kind of stories emerge.
It is something it is nothing, choices and laws are made on the way, by coincidence.

Unfoldings
3 November 2024 until 4 January 2025

This group of works explores the opening and unfolding of hollow bodies. From simple symmetries to complex, molecule-like structures, an interplay is created between inner space and outer form. Structures overgrown by electroforming are uncovered and reveal the moment of the drawing gesture and the sculptural idea of axial reflection.
