I
ought to explain why I hate also making jewellery ...
...
and I do, not only because the actual period of creation
is very short, and the process of making very tedious,
but because of its limitations in self expression and
materialistic overtone the world "jewellery"
carries. I tried once to break that rule with a brooch
I made, with a quotation by Karl Marx inside it.

I failed
miserably. The piece in itself is a contradiction, so
is the quotation, the way I exhibit in here, another.
The image of the imaginary coronation crown carries
contradiction, too. The "Cartier" display-tray,
with all the associations of that name, displaying a
revolutionary quotation, yet another. And so are the
monkey pictures on the wall wearing my jewellery.
Compared
to its creative quality, the whole concept of money
making jewellery today is a contradiction of money making
jewellery today is a contradiction and for me a total
unimportance.
