Maintaining my old house
I have no idea why I started to make hundreds of little ceramic pieces of less than a square cm one day. After firing them 2 to 3 times with glaze and some with gold luster, I left them on my crafting table for I don’t even know how long anymore.
Before and during the making of these little tiles, I was busy with painting my house, with help from some friends. I took away the skirting boards because they didn’t fit well.
Some time after that I decided to start knotting together those little parts and it became a necklace-object about maintaining my old house.
I used gold paint already to mark the tears in the walls (like kintsugi)….
And the paint stains on the back side of the skirting boards, of which I made the frame, match very well with the colors of the little tiles.
