Brooch, Piece 8, from How Long Is Now collection
This is a Brooch. It was designed by Jantje Fleischhut.
This object is not part of the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. It was able to spend time at the museum on loan from Jantje Fleischhut as part of Beauty—Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial.
Fleischhut creates evocative pieces of jewelry by combining precious materials with less valuable items. This brooch from Fleischhut’s How Long Is Now collection is made with common materials such as concrete, sponge, and foam. Fleischhut honors these materials with the same care and consideration she would bestow upon amethyst or topaz.
It is credited Courtesy of Ornamentum Gallery.
