 » What is heavy? What is light? We judge what is important and unimportant depending on our mind set. Today we are hanging jewellery.

 Viewed from outer space, the earth appears to be covered with a web of lights. A lace network of order, woven together by illuminated threads. Forces hold everything in its place. Gravity defines weight, the planets pull on one another and rotate in axis and orbits. »

EXPO ‘Nora Rochel: Ashen Lights’ – Ring weimar, Weimar (Germany) – 18 Juill.-5 Sept. 2014

Nora Rochel: Ashen Lights – ring weimar (Weimar, Germany)

Ashen Lights
Do we need new materials and decorative elements in jewelry, or is it still enough to shape metal in new ways to attract attention?
Embracing lost-wax casting as her key technique and silver in its purest form, Nora Rochel immerses herself in a delicate, miniature world and crystalline shapes reminiscent of moonlit landscapes and star speckled skies.
The pieces in this collection will draw the eye, leading to new discoveries about the essence of form and matter.

EXPO ‘Nora Rochel : Spotlight’ – Mobilia Gallery, Cambridge (US) – 7 Dec. 2013 – 18 Janv. 2014

« Nora Rochel : Spotlight » – Mobilia Gallery

Mobilia Gallery is pleased to present a spotlight exhibition of new jewelry by Nora Rochel. « Inspired by the wordplay of the German word « querbeet, » meaning unsystematic, mix and match as well as referencing flower beds, Nora Rochel explores the world of flowers and organic growth as visual form-giving and expressiveness in both jewellery and everyday objects. Wearing Nora Rochel’s rings turns one‘s hands into small landscapes and gardens. Many of the rings are fanciful, but often the source of inspiration is a real flower. Characteristic features are hidden details like small flowers on the inside or the use of different metals in one piece. »

This collection represents several of the pieces made during Rochel’s three-month residency in the City of Erfurt, Germany, also known as the « City of Flowers » due to its seed breeding industry. « I used my time in Erfurt to experiment freely. It was important to me to explore different themes that relate to this city and let my impressions pour into my jewellery. »

EXPO ‘Secret Gardens’ – Galerie P’LACE, Dresden (DE) – 2 Nov.-23 Dec. 2013

SECRET GARDENS  – Vernissage/ Opening Reception: Sa, 02. November, 19 h

The secret garden joins all the jewellery-plants and animals, Nora Rochel, Toril Bonsaksen and Ricarda Enderweit created. From the invented seed capsules by Nora Rochel, having small gardens inside, to the autumnal moments of decay in the works by Ricarda Enderweit, almost reminding of garden architecture.

The garden is also the place of “Contemplatio“, thinking about nature and culture, such as the « Thinking about the flyway »-series by Toril Bonsaksen. The garden is often a theme in fine arts as well as applied arts, in litterature and film as a place of self-awareness, as a metaphor und place for reflection.

Nora Rochel shows a summary of recent works at the SECRET GARDENS exhibition.

Currently she works in Erfurt, where she holds the grant „Erfurter Stadtgoldschmiedin“ of the city of Erfurt. Toril Bonsaksen, who is living in Oslo, shows works form her series „Thinking about the Flyway“. Ricarda Enderweit exhibits rings and brooches as results of her examination with nature.

The exhibition is a collaborative project of Froschhammer & Rosenvogel Berlin and P’LACE Dresden

EXPO ‘Nora Rochel : Florilegia’ – Kulturhof Krönbacken, Erfurt (DE) – 17 Aout-29 Oct. 2013

Nora Rochel : Florilegia

Nora Rochel has been awarded the city goldsmith of Erfurt 2013 !!

Nora Rochel – Model: Wax 2013

« Florilegia can be translated as a « gathering of flowers » and denotes a compilation of excerpts of writings such as poems or proverbs, but also botanical illustrations depicting flowers in an ornamental way rather than a scientific one. Because plants and flowers are a reocurring theme in my work as a jewellery maker, I chose this title for my final exhibition as the « Erfurter Stadtgoldschmied » or in English « City Goldsmith of Erfurt ».
In May 2013, I started my new position as an artist or goldsmith in residence. For three months I lived and worked in Erfurt, also known as the « City of Flowers » due to its seed breeding industry. The whole area used to be surrounded by flowering plants. I used my time here in Erfurt to experiment freely. It was important to me to explore different themes that relate to this city and let my impressions pour into my jewellery.
My jewellery will be shown at the Kulturhof Krönbacken alongside another little experiment of mine. When starting this project I have planted some seeds which have blossomed into fully-grown plants. As with ideas for jewellery making you can never know which of the attempts will sprout and thrive.
Biological Illustrations are the main theme of the exhibition. A plant called dyer’s woad had a great influence on the developement of the city. Through my reading about woad I stumbled upon biological illustrations of plants. At a visit of the horticultural museum’s department for pomology, I found further inspiration that I translated into a medium of jewellery that is new to me, the « brooche », which I adorned in a manner that is reminiscent of a relief or a drawing.
Industrial Enamel is one of the new techniques that I encountered here in Erfurt. At my « temporary work place », or the artists’ studios, it is used more often than the enamel for jewellery making. The studio and the kilns are available for rent, and during my first weeks here in Erfurt they were used by a group of enamelers from all over Europe which spurred me to experiment with industrial enamel myself. The results have a glaze in different shades of blue and refer to the theme of the dyer’s woad.
During my time here in Erfurt I have learned a lot, found much inspiration and new concepts for jewellery making that I will carry on developing in the future. » Nora Rochel

Flora eats Fauna

Who are they?
(Animals? Plants? Organisms? Objects? Bodies? Humans?… Creatures?)
If we are vulnerable, how vulnerable are they?
Who nurtures who? Does life precede death, or does death precede life?

Come and wander amongst ‘the others’, let yourself get intertwined in a cycle caught between defense and protection, captivating beauty and cruelty.
Discover your own values through their bewildering characteristics. We need each other.
