Silvie Altschuler

Silvie Altschuler’s jewellery gracefully defies predictability. It embodies the unstructured allure of existence itself, basking in the mystique of ambiguity. Much like the prose of a James Joyce novel, her pieces break free from conventional moulds, beckoning us into a realm of limitless creativity. In her exploration, Altschuler reshapes the value of gold and precious stones, daringly challenging established norms. Just as life follows its intricate path, her art escapes predictable boundaries. Through materials like silicone and felt, she shapes characters that dance between whimsy and the mysteriously unfamiliar. The interplay of humour and irony seamlessly woven into her pieces disrupts the mundane, transcending expectations. Much like life’s enigmatic journey, her art invites us to embrace the unexpected and find grace in the unconventional. Silvie Altschuler’s jewellery captures life’s complexity, inviting us to discover solace in the uncharted territory of the undefined.

After graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in literature, Silvie left everything behind to study jewellery-making at the Alchimia School in Florence, under the tutelage of Manfred Bischoff. Graduating in 2006, she was selected for the prestigious Schmuck exhibition in Munich, and presented her first solo show at the gallery. Her creations have been seen at various international exhibitions, most recently in Thailand.

From September 2 to 23, 2023, the gallery is pleased to introduce her newest pieces in a duo exhibition with Korean jewelry artist Coco Sung.
