Swedish jewelery artisan Hanna Hedman has just released her latest collection, titled "What you tell is not always what you have experienced". Her necklaces and collars are reminiscent of knitted Medieval battle gear, yet Hanna notes she was inspired by lies, escapism, reality and fantasy.
Hanna Hedman’s pieces are particularly fascinating because of their stark contrasts: the material appears to be raw and unruly, sharp-edged and cold a juxtaposition to the soft, organic shapes, which are aesthetically fragile like filigree.
Hedman's pieces express a developmental process that is one of a kind like a neverending story. Her renouncement of black and white, a peculiar choice for ornamental work, is more of a mantra than a method.
