00:00:00,859 --> 00:00:03,531
Necklaces, brooches and
various jewellery elements – the Erfurt
2
00:00:03,556 --> 00:00:07,757
goldsmith Sarah Ordonez is currently
exhibiting at the Angermuseum.
3
00:00:08,077 --> 00:00:10,273
Here she shows pieces created
during her stay in the state capital,
4
00:00:10,298 --> 00:00:13,101
among other things.
5
00:00:13,375 --> 00:00:16,382
She lived and worked
in Erfurt for three months.
6
00:00:16,407 --> 00:00:19,261
Now those interested can
marvel at the results of this time.
7
00:00:20,163 --> 00:00:23,029
Sarah Ordonez: Here is an
combination of work that I
8
00:00:23,054 --> 00:00:27,851
made before and the
pieces I created here in Erfurt.
9
00:00:28,054 --> 00:00:32,708
So I have three finished pieces: three necklaces
10
00:00:32,733 --> 00:00:36,236
and I also have some
tryouts that I made here
11
00:00:36,260 --> 00:00:41,751
and pieces from before:
broaches and necklaces.
12
00:00:42,540 --> 00:00:44,931
Ordonez was
inspired above all by nature
13
00:00:44,965 --> 00:00:47,314
and the flowers that
surrounded her art workshop.
14
00:00:47,585 --> 00:00:49,071
It's very green.
There are a lot of
15
00:00:49,096 --> 00:00:52,392
flowers and I could see
the flowers changing.
16
00:00:52,645 --> 00:00:57,011
When I arrive I could find some,
and then they started changing.
17
00:00:57,118 --> 00:01:00,535
I think my work is
quite related to nature.
18
00:01:00,714 --> 00:01:03,473
So there's a connection
there for sure.
19
00:01:04,301 --> 00:01:07,160
Other artists
have also influenced her work.
20
00:01:07,252 --> 00:01:10,632
For example, she shows
a necklace inspired by
21
00:01:10,656 --> 00:01:12,951
the Mexican painter Frida Kahlo.
22
00:01:12,983 --> 00:01:16,842
"Viva la vida - Live the
life" she called the jewel.
23
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,356
The jewellery of Ordonez is
made of a wide variety of materials,
24
00:01:20,381 --> 00:01:23,528
such as tin cans, metal or paper.
25
00:01:23,701 --> 00:01:27,689
Another material was added
in Erfurt: Ordonez worked with
26
00:01:27,713 --> 00:01:31,409
enamel for the first time.
Many new pieces of jewellery have been created.
27
00:01:31,452 --> 00:01:35,909
The exhibition in the Angermuseum can be
visited free of charge until 4 September.
28
00:01:35,967 --> 00:01:40,084
Sarah Ordonez is then back
in her Mexican homeland.
29
00:01:40,305 --> 00:01:42,459
She looks back on her
time in Erfurt with gratitude.
30
00:01:42,573 --> 00:01:47,310
It's been a very interesting
time and I think very important.
31
00:01:47,623 --> 00:01:56,009
It was good for me to have the
time and the space to find myself,
32
00:01:56,034 --> 00:02:02,813
working again and also after the pandemic
and after everything to be able to travel,
33
00:02:02,851 --> 00:02:06,934
to be able to make work in a
place where I've never been. I think
34
00:02:06,959 --> 00:02:11,356
it's been quite inspiring and
I'm very happy. I'm very grateful.
