METTE SAABYE - ...ANOTHER MAN'S TREASURE
A tour de force of the contemporary arts and crafts scene in Denmark, Saabye’s highly conceptual work draws inspiration by deconstructing the notion of what constitutes jewellery.
A tour de force of the contemporary arts and crafts scene in Denmark, Saabye’s highly conceptual work draws inspiration by deconstructing the notion of what constitutes jewellery.
Her choice of materials relies on the thematic content of her work, challenging established conventions regarding value: while she employs objects considered valuable, she also uses those that have lost their value. Often surprising but always fascinating, her work is underpinned by her remarkable technical skills and eye for aesthetics.www.louisesmit.nl
