Silver stimulates the senses in new exhibition
‘Please Touch’
In the new exhibition ‘Please Touch,’ the Netherlands Silver Museum challenges a centuries-old museum rule: ‘Don’t touch.’ While museums now protect almost all their objects behind glass, ‘Please Touch’ invites visitors to touch the works in some cases.
I especially made a Silver Fleece piece that you can touch during the exhibition.
30 october 2025-9 november 2026

The Hammerclub exhibtion 2025 is still on show in Wasserschoß Klaffenbach, near Chemnitz. This year no hammered work, due to my hands, but twisted wirework bracelets.
International Jewellery Competition is the main event of the Legnica Jewellery Festival SILVER 2025. The competition has been organized by the Gallery of Art in Legnica since 1979 (initially as the National Review of the Goldsmiths Forms). It is one of the oldest initiatives to promote contemporary artistic jewellery in Europe, supporting creative explorations within a niche field at the intersection of art, craft and design. Artists from all over the world, goldsmiths, designers, professional and amateur jewellery makers were invited to participate in the contest. The competition is artistic in nature, and the organizers left the artists full freedom of choice of techniques and materials, noting that a key criterion for evaluation was a clear reference to the competition’s main theme (WOW Effect!).
Ik zal aanwezig zijn met sieraden en objecten op de Kerstmarkt in Diepenheim op 8 december 2024.
