Portraying nature is a new approach to art jewellery, and here the combination of art jewellery and photography is investigated. Accompanies the exhibition at Bayerischer Kunstgewerbeverein, Munchen (DE), February 19th - April 2nd, 2016, and at The Gallery of Art in Legnica (PL), April 28th - June 5th, 2016.
Mari Ishikawa sees a parallel world off the beaten track of everyday living that she wants to make visible with her art. Such counter-worlds are discovered in photographs with long exposures, which are taken up in art jewelry. Together these pairings result in an overall picture that is almost mystical. Silver casts taken from nature are reborn as jewelry in combination with diamonds, pieces of charcoal, or paper. Thus Mari Ishikawa interrupts for a brief moment the flow of transience; a precious object is created that has been wrenched from the cycle of life and death to stand for itself and for the moment.
