Nowadays we have the ability to live in different countries.
Each time we have to adjust to a new place, culture, customs, and make new connections.
It influences our personality, how we view ourselves and how we interact with others.
All these overlapping experiences merge together to create our identity.
Elements of it can be sometimes conflicting, unclear at first, hidden.
Tumultuous feelings inside us are guarded by a frame of resilience.
Carved ebony symbolises the need for warmth and connection.
Layers of materials and techniques contrast with the simple form of the brooch.
We carry an array of circumstances that shaped our identity.
Many of us share stories of struggles but also the benefits of mobility.
Overlapping slivers of life create our melange of identity.

"Whole"
brooch
stainless steel

The Whole brooch was born from the idea of "completing" a shape by superimposing half of it
onto a mirrored plate.

The idea stems from the desire to complete a shape only virtually, a part that isn't actually there but that, through a play of mirrors, completes the shape.

This work is the result of a continuous research into the shapes that surround us in everyday life, which change appearance depending on how they are seen and reflected in space.

This brooch is composed of two elements: a laser-cut stainless steel plate that serves as a reflector, and a 3D-printed steel element that rests on top and reflects itself.

It's interesting to think that the square shape of the brooch transforms, when worn, into a shiny mirror that reflects the entire space around it and the people it encounters a mutable object.

The malleability of the copper mesh allows me to create a spiral, which I have painted gold like a medal, where the different turns intertwine like moving layers, creating a dialogue with the body for whom this brooch is intended.

This jewel, where material, form, color, and message converge, symbolizes the critical situations that can disrupt our lives, bringing with them challenges—of the ever-increasing difficulty—that we must face, react to, and overcome like heroes.

I hope that those who observe my jewelry pieces will not remain indifferent and will understand the message by delving into their own feelings and experiences.

I use form and color to reinforce the narrative power of my jewelry, which forms a collection of sculptures made for the body and space.

Tension, contact, connection — these are the forces that shape this work.
We are drawn to the moment of equilibrium, and equally to its absence:
where opposing forces meet and connect.
Our inspiration finds its voice in geometric form — simple, clean, essential.
Nothing is excess.
What remains is only the purest expression of shape, lightness, and elegance.
We seek to capture what is elusive — the fleeting essence of time and space — and make it tangible.
In our work, geometry becomes feeling, and form becomes memory.

The story of life's journey—its highs, lows, and the transitions in between.
Overlapping forms like memories, each layer bearing the traces of a moment.
Some are clearly in the foreground, others blur beneath, all part of the whole.
The frames mark segments: stable times and those we must search for new.
They define boundaries—and simultaneously open a view to what lies beyond.
As in life itself, the layers are constantly shifting. What was hidden yesterday emerges today.
The up and down is reflected in the staggered layers:highs that support and lows that create space for change.
No layer stands alone, interplay do movement, rhythm, and balance arise.
A miniature landscape of life: a network of frames, layers, lines that reminds us that every experience—visible or hidden—becomes a part of us.

Today, identity is less a stable state than a dynamic construct shaped by digital traces and data collection. Personal information, movement patterns, and online activities are constantly recorded and transformed into complex identity profiles.

This brooch reflects this multifaceted state.

Two fragmented sections of a three-dimensional facial profile made of copper mesh and transparent enamel overlap and shift, creating an unstable image.

Copper represents data streams, while the transparent enamel evokes the “transparent society.”

The patinated stainless steel frame with needl-like pins, situates these processes within a technological context and highlights the vulnerability of the individual within these systems.

The Poetry of Chance

Cuttlefish Bone Casting in the Age of Algorithms, in a world increasingly shaped by absolute precision, CNC milling, and the cold perfection of 3D printing, cuttlefish bone casting feels like a romantic ode to uniqueness—a dialogue between craftsmanship and molten material.
The heat of the metal creates a one-of-a-kind texture, a natural grain no machine can replicate.
Gentle wave patterns become signatures of the process.
It is a return to touch, to the sensory presence of material, to the exchange between maker and fire.
The result: a distinctive piece, formed through an ancient, ecologica ltechnique—transforming existing materials into new, singular creations.

MIRRORS is a series of 40 mirror-shaped brooches in oxidised brass and copper, set in silver, conceived as devices of relation and reflection.

The iridescent surface does not return a fixed image but instead activates overlaps among the human body, the other, and matter.

The mirror becomes a site of overlap: a point of contact between human and non-human, identity and otherness.

Surfaces are treated with structural colours on melanin—inspired by insects and birds—emerging from micro-layers that interfere with light.

These colours are not pigments but the result of a scientific stratification.

Worn on the body, the mirrored pieces reflect, creating shifting narratives among viewer and context.

The colour experimentation stems from a collaboration with scientist Maria Boto (KASK Academy BE).

"Cubes: Chromatic Overlap"
neckjewelery
steel, powdercoated, nylon, wood, magnets

©Konstanze Prechtl

The work is part of an ongoing series of powder coated cubes connected in a linear sequence.

Each cube follows a gradual shift in scale and color from green through yellow to orange, creating a continuous progression.

Within this structure, the idea of overlap emerges through the colors themselves.

Rather than existing as isolated tones, the hues transition into one another, creating zones where one color visually blends into the next.

These moments of transition form subtle overlaps, where boundaries soften and distinctions become less fixed.

The work explores how difference and continuity can coexist within a single system.

Overlap becomes both a spatial and perceptual condition in which colors intersect visually, scales echo one another, and the individual cubes form a connected rhythm.
