Margit Jaschke (*1962) lives and works as an independent artist in
Halle (Saale), Germany. It was here in the 1980s that she studied
at the Burg Giebichenstein art school under Renate Heintze and
Dorothea Pruhl. Her work - collage, jewellery, drawings, and
objects - celebrates inspiration, the origin of all creativity. She
delights her audience with her very unique vision of the 'poetry of
things'. The title of her publication is symbolic of her oeuvre:
Kairos is the Greek god of the fortuitous moment, who can only be
caught fleetingly by his forelock. It is this precious moment that
Margit Jaschke seizes, harnessing it to fuel her creativity.

Elisabeth Defner is one of Austria's most prominent jewellery
designers. Since her jewellery design studies at the Vienna Academy
of Applied Arts at the beginning of the 1960s she has been working
as an independent artist in Vienna, until 1976 cooperating with the
jewellery artist Helfried Kodre in a workshop community. In 1967
she won the Bavarian State Award in Munich, in 1970 the
Diamond-Award. Today her works are displayed in museums in Vienna,
Graz, Pforzheim, Cologne, Prague and Edinburgh. For Elisabeth
Defner- who since 1990 bears the second name of Jesus- jewellery
isn't merely an aesthetic matter, but also a form of complementary
healthcare for body, soul and spirit. The energy radiated from the
metals and stones is in holistic harmony with the forms of the
jewellery and can bring about an inner transformation of the
wearer. Brooches, earrings, rings or pendants are combined with
moulded gingko leaves, so that the beauty of the jewellery can
merge idealistically with the magical effect of the plant. Defner's
magnetic jewellery of recent years also presents itself in the
context of the incorporation of the hidden power of nature, with
magnetic boxes and objects like magic wands and chess pieces.
