Carina Wagenaar

She uses existing every day elements to uniquely combine and visualise new exciting stories to tell. Expressions of feelings, thoughts, spirituality and events of the world in which we life are translated into the life size wall jewels.
In a hectic world full of stressful rapid changes, the objects give a moment of reflection and tranquility.

The works bear a strong resemblance to small necklace medallions holding the most precious memorabilia of the owner. As with the smaller versions these larger pieces of art bring a soul into the placed environment.

The large medallions challenge the observer to pay extra attention to the very smallest objects in each and every detail. These details should never be taken for granted since they are an important part of the bigger picture; of life and the world around us.
