Jewellery exhibition EHE / JEWEL is the first solo exhibition of metal artist MERI (Merilin Pedastsaar).
My first jewellery collection is greatly boosted by the host of Disainimaja, Hedviga Vei who challenged me to “come out of the closet”.
In my daily work, I make jewellery for men and women who have found their way to my workshop. EHE / JEWEL can be interpreted as “For the Dearest”. With this exhibition, I want to draw a parallel between metals and people, man and woman. To better understand my profession and to thank all those pure characters who have brought colour to my daily routine or made me ponder something.
Ehtekunsti näitus EHE / JEWEL on metallikunstnik MERI (Merilin pedastsaar) esimene isiknäitus.
Minu esimene ehete kollektsioon on suuresti tõuke saanud Disainimaja perenaise Hedviga Vei´lt. Kes esitas mulle väljakutse “tulla kapist välja”!
Oma igapäevatöös loon ehteid meestele ja naistele, kes õnnelikul juhul on leidnud tee minu töökotta. EHE / JEWEL võib lahti tõlgendada kui “Kallimatest Kallimatele”. Näitusega soovin tõmmata paralleeli metallide ja inimeste vahele, mehe ja naise vahele. Mõistmaks paremini oma eriala ning tänades neid puhtaid karaktereid, kes on toonud minu argipäeva värve või pannud mind millegi üle järgi mõtlema.

Hi, I'm Merilin
Get in touch! Because the meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances - if there is any reaction, both are transformed.
Ehemeri OÜ pakub koostöös ESTO-ga nüüd ka järelmaksu võimalust - et ükski ilus mõte ei jääks teostamata!
