🇬🇧 “We want to show our concern about the ecological dangers threatening the Baltic Sea,” say artists Maja Breife (Sweden), Wiebke Pandikow (Finland) and Karina Kazlauskaitė. Maja and Wiebke organized an self-funded international symposium of contemporary jewelry “LandJewelry”. You can visit this project’s exhibition at Klaipėda Gallery till the 4th of June.
We talked about how the idea to create this project came up, the challenges that arose, the expanding understanding of the field of jewelry and the ability of art to provoke, educate and inspire.
The host of this podcast is Rosana Lukauskaitė.
The continuity of the podcast’s project is supported by the Lithuanian Council for Culture.

Project Land Jewelry took place on the island of Öland, Sweden, in the last days of August 2021. Eight jewelry artists from four different countries around the Baltic Sea met on the island to create ‘Land Jewelry’, temporary works of art reflecting on the challenges facing the ecosystem that is the Baltic Sea.

During the five days working on the coast of Segerstad in southeast Öland, the team created almost 30 ‘Land Jewels’ most of which were sculptural installations. The exhibition at the Klaipėda Gallery presents these works in photographs and a video of the pieces on site, as well as previous jewelry work of each artist. Included is also an installation thematizing the exploitation of the Baltic Sea, made exclusively for this exhibition.

All the works made on Öland were left where they were created, with the exception of some non-biodegradable materials that the artists removed. Over time, most of this land jewelry has decayed and the materials from which it was created become once again part of the surrounding nature. Traces of the artists’ intervention disappear, the transient pieces an homage to our beautiful Baltic Sea.

The project was initiated and organized by Maja Breife (Sweden) and Wiebke Pandikow (Finland). Further participants: Aino-Astrid Gaedtke (Germany), Elli Hukka (Finland), Ingrid Berg (Sweden), Kajsa Wikström (Sweden), Karina Kazlauskaitė (LI), Lauryna Kiškytė (LI)

Another throwback to last year to my residency in Italy.
I was able to experience spring two times that year, there in the south and then again in Finland when I was back in May. While I photographed these flowers last year already in March in Italy, right now in Helsinki our backyard is still half covered in snow, (but melting fast now!). This long snow cover has made it so snow drops, crocus, scilla, narcissus and tulips are all up pretty much at the same time. When spring finally has a chance to come in the north, it certainly comes all at once!

Throwback to pretty much exactly one year ago, when I had the possibility to spend a two month residency in Mazzano Romano, Italy, right by the beautiful Valle del Treja nature reserve.

There were many of these kind of quiet, misty mornings, when, after a cold night the warm spring sun would draw up a wispy haze from the cold river valley...
