Object 'Holy Heart'

“HOLY HEART” (der Zilversmiths) 1990 (Jan)

Reaction to the classic processing of silver.

The Silver In Movement Foundation, founded in 1990, set stalled design ideas about large silver and the processing of silver in motion. A heart-shaped cushion inviting to the touch contains very fine silver powder in the center. When touched, it spreads over the heart and fingers of the visitor. The red heart is gradually being silver plated, the viewer takes a little silver with him.

Artificial leather, textile, wood, silver powder

Used as an opening ceremony and included in the Dubbelop exhibition in the Dutch Silver Museum until April 2021.
