Christina also wears Blue Necklace and Grey/Blue Bracelet
Nel Linssen always took an intuitive approach to her bracelets and necklaces made from paper; however, it is also an approach based on years of research and haptic knowledge. The relationship between wearer and viewer is paramount to Linssen’s work, its articulation on the body enhancing and highlighting the jewellery’s colours and textures. While the wearer is aware of the sensuous nature and movement of the jewellery, the viewer is drawn to the constant visual changes to the work wrought by the slightest movement of the body. The Gallery held a special relationship with the artist over three decades. We celebrated her 80th birthday in 2015.
