"When I am working with colours, I feel like a painter. When I am
working with metal, I feel like a constructor. And when I am
working with toys, I feel like a child." (Felieke van der Leest).
The work of Dutch jewellery and object artist Felieke van der Leest
(born in 1968) expresses the very special affection that she has
for animals. With unbridled fantasy she creates pieces that
ostentatiously, colourfully and playfully revolve around her little
friends. She combines techniques used in textile work, such as
crochet, with valuable metals and plastic toy animals. Within the
international art jewellery scene she has developed her own special
language with which she narrates intelligent and witty stories with
her animal protagonists; her pieces inevitably conjure a smile upon
the faces of those who view them. Characteristic for Van der Leest
is the joy in her work, which is ever present yet sometimes carried
off into childhood. Serious themes in her work are also expressed,
including environmental protection and human approaches to animals.
The current publication comprises jewellery and objects by the
renowned artist from 1996 to the present.
