Sofia Björkman’s, @sofia_platina , work draws on found crab shells collected along the shoreline. While these shells once served as camouflage, their fragility becomes evident once they are left behind. The piece reflects on jewellery as a form of protection, identity, and adaptation—yet also on its limits. In times of crisis, creativity becomes essential, transforming even seemingly impossible materials into new structures. Many thanks to Sofia Björkman for participating in SCHMUCKmünchen.
Sofia Björkmans, @sofia_platina , Arbeit basiert auf gefundenen Krabbenschalen, die sie an der Küste sammelt. Einst dienten sie der Tarnung, doch ihre Fragilität wird sichtbar, sobald sie zurückbleiben. Die Arbeit reflektiert Schmuck als Schutz, Identität und Anpassung – und zugleich dessen Grenzen. In Krisenzeiten wird Kreativität zur Notwendigkeit und ermöglicht neue Formen aus scheinbar ungeeigneten Materialien. Vielen Dank an Sofia Björkman für die Teilnahme an der SCHMUCKmünchen.

Srebrna nagroda AMBERIF Design Award 2026 trafiła do @sofia_platina za broszę 👉 The Magick Of The Hand Is The Matter Of The Craft. 👏
Igła. 🪡 Najprostsza forma. Łączy. Naprawia. Nadaje sens. A bursztyn? 🤔 Nie jest tu tylko materią. Staje się zapisem czasu, rytmem pracy rąk, śladem uważności.
To nie tylko biżuteria. To opowieść o uważności w świecie, który coraz rzadziej się zatrzymuje.

We are open today and show the exhibition
COMPLEMENTING REALITY with
HELEN CLARA HEMSLEY & METTE SAABYE
Two countries, two biographies - one shared narrative. Draw on their childhood and youth in the 70s and 80s, weaving together personal experiences and global events. Their work reflects both: connection and distance - gently filled with care and respect.
With support from The Swedish Arts Council.
’Complementing reality’ is supported by the Danish Arts Foundation, Danmarks Nationalbank’s Anniversary Foundation and Copenhagen Goldsmiths’ Guild.
