some other pieces…

The duck in the can will be sending away to a gallery close by Gothenburg among some other plastic pieces in the end of September… The stick brooch is just a try out that I like and it has a good look when you wear it.





finally... after been indoors and get more or less crazy about all the small beads… here is the result…

Finally I’m finish with the pieces for Falsterbo Konsthall in Skåne…

Now I have to pack them and print out a c/v, price and material list and went to the post office.

And after that I have to cross my fingers that they like it and that the visitors also will be curios and see the colourful pieces with joy.




























from chaos to clarity…

This is photos are from today... a mess and chaos, but I like it and it’s a part of my everyday life... I think that I get clarity and orderliness out of it in the end…





coming up…





9 September–9 October
THE RING - jewel forever
Opening Friday 9/9 at 18:00

THE RING - the most common piece of jewellery can be full of meaning, a personal statement sometimes showing itself as a technical miracle or purely decorative and beautiful. It can demand attention, be an invitation to play, be filled with tears and secrets - and is to be worn for one day or for ever.


In homage to the ring Galleri Hnoss has invited all the jewellery artists exhibited in the gallery since the start in 1997 to produce one ring each. The result is now to be seen in the exhibition THE RING - jewel forever. The show consisting of over one hundred rings is a vibrant collection of different expressions, thoughts and forms.

In connection with the exhibition on September 9 we are also arranging a seminar. The theme is the ring seen from different perspectives. We are very proud to announce the speakers: Anna Schetelich from Galerie Oona, Germany, Professor Otto Kunzli, Germany, and Manuel Vilhena, jewellery artist from Portugal. Moderator is Love Jönsson, crafts critic and guest lecturer at HDK, University of Gothenburg. The seminar is a collaboration between Galleri Hnoss and the Department of Jewellery Art at HDK, with support from Gothenburg Crafts Association, Estrid Ericsson's Foundation, Wilhelm and Martina Lundgren Fund, and the family Wikanders Foundation.

With the exhibition The ring- jewel forever Galleri Hnoss will also manifest that our activities will change from now on. After this event we will leave our physical gallery and work in other ways in the future.

one of my last pieces...

This is one of my last pieces that will be sending away as soon as possible with some other stuff.
I think that I have been affected by the thing that’s going on in the world when I have doing this brooch…


I working for some deadlines right now and have less time to sit with the computer these days, therefore less post at the blog and less e-mail private to all that miss my e-mails.

I have a lot of great photos from my summer holiday, some event that I have been at and so on, but I hope that I will have the time to add post about it when all the things are ready, when the time has calm down and the autumn and the winter are here to stay for a long time…

I should not complain, but the time is limit… I think I work as he… but even I have to sleep and work for bread and butter and have time with friends and catch the sun when it’s there, BUT I’m so happy for the things and places that are waiting for me, places there I will show my stuff later this autumn and in the beginning of next year.

I will absolutely blog the coming up exhibitions and other stuff when time has calm down.

Take care all of you out there; and visitors, friends and colleges that stop by here sometime, I’m thinking about you all.

Enjoy life and keep up the good work!

Ruudt Peters...

Between body and spirit.

Flat, amorphous shapes in subdued shades of dark-grey. Ruudt Peters’ new jewellery appears to be austere and abstract until the eye is drawn to the occasional sharp edges, distinct details, or intentionally modelled surfaces. Associations suddenly tumble over one another: arms or legs evoke images, suggestive associations abound, one look at a face and a reaction is mandatory.

Janina Kurp...

Janina Kurp a friend and college of me is exhibit out of Gothenburg right now, at Not Quiet in Dalsland.
I haven’t seen the exhibition; it’s to far away if you don’t have a car or a day off to go by train (I think).

hi you...

Finally I’m back again after a great summertime in my old hoods, Sundsvall and the island Alnö where I grow up and become the one I am today ( I think…).

I started my summer with a permanent post at Kulturlabbet and also started with vacation for four weeks.

I will post some of all my nice summer experience later on, now I want to say hallo again and started to post things that happen in the jewellery world here in Gothenburg and in other places all around the world…

I hope you all had a great summer and that you are well-rested and want to start new interesting projects and idea, I am absorb and right now I try to find my way to work with ideas, with new tasks… how to handle my time as good as I possible could.
