VISION

Each bead is an element in the pattern. The result is an overall design in which each individual bead unfolds its effect only in interaction with others.

I specialize in weaving glass beads because the centuries-old art of weaving is threatened with extinction, threatened to be forgotten and at the same time fascinates me.

My goal is to keep the knowledge of this alive, to pass it on, and to reinterpret it through my designs. This creates jewelry with sculptural surfaces that combine tradition and modernity, strangeness and familiarity in a unique way.

For me, weaving is not only a craft, but also a way of life. Therefore, I am constantly learning and have begun to experiment with other materials and combine them with glass beads, resulting in unique new connections.

Each work is created by carefully interweaving hundreds to thousands of glass beads, which together form an artistic picture of colors, shapes and patterns. The intensive examination of material and technique enables me to create not only decorative, but also symbolically charged and emotionally effective works of art.

"The most beautiful feeling for me is when my vision unfolds into a tactile image that I can feel."

With love
