Necklace 'Red' from serie: 'Fabrics
View through Europeana Collections
Large and robust necklace consisting of a bundle of different red yarns and beads.´ Quote Willemijn de Greef: "Weefs" is about more than just the material I use in my work and the way I use it. It's about trains of thought, the interweaving of subjects. About where I come from, where I grew up. About connections, family and history. It's about how I experience things, read them. How I see them and would like to see them. Recognizable shapes have changed into more abstract forms. Zoomed in as it were, strongly enlarged. The language I speak is that of jewellery. I look with the eyes of a jewellery maker, right down to the detail. I want the viewer to see what my eyes see. These are my interpretations of regional and ornamental costume in Zeeland.
