EXPO ‘CURRENT – MANO × Orizzonti’ – MANO Contemporary Jewellery & Object,Taipei, Taiwan (R.O.C.) – 8-26 Janv. 2014

CURRENT – MANO × Orizzonti

In the beginning of the 2014, MANO has teamed up with Japanese contemporary jewellery group Orizzonti to present the touring exhibition “CURRENT”.
12 artists, with different backgrounds, from 7 countries, came together to think about the basic question: “where is the world going?” The name of the exhibition “CURRENT” not only stands for the flow of ideas but also what’s happening in the world now. Both those concepts are intended to be expressed through jewellery. Each piece is presented together with the concept video made by the artist.
In Living with Art, Mark Getlein proposes 6 activities, services or functions of contemporary artists :
1. Create placese for some human purpose.
2. Create extraoridinary versions of ordinary objects.
3. Record and commemorate.
4. Give tangible form to the unknown.
5. Give tangible form to feelings.
6. Refresh our vision and help see the world in new ways.
MANO is delighted to bring “CURRENT” to the current climate in Taiwan, hoping to offer the viewers to see these extraordinary versions of ordinary objects which express memory, feelings, and the unknown and to see the world in new light.

Artists:  Elisa Deval — Janny Huang Yokota — Karin Kato — Manolya Konuk — Maria Constanza Ochoa — Meiri Ishida — Poly Nikolopoulou – Rallou Katsari — Rudee Tancharoen –  Yoriko Mitsuhashi — Yoko Shimizu — Yuki Sumiya

It’s secretive and precious as the words vanishes into ashes. »

« white for bones 、white for spirits » serie (2013)

 » Bone and Spirits are the beauty beyond Death.
When we live everyday in life,
our bone structure support us physically and
our spirits fulfill us to see things differently.
But those 2 things between our body and mind
are the things that we can not see with our actual eyes.
When we have the feeling of remorse,
I think it’s the closest feeling to reach our bones,
When we have the feeling of emptiness ,
I think it’s the moment we search for spirits.
With the moments of feeling remorse and emptiness,
we recognize the existence of Being.
It’s very human like and I see the true beauty in it.
For me it’s a image of white that links to purity and truth.
After death it’s the bone and the spirit that lasts forever.
I choose my mother’s old jewelry to take a model out of it,
maybe because of her young death has lead me to see beyond.
And to remind me what is the true beauty of life.
Her jewelry is a bone to me and her spirits comes within »
