Jewelry designer Jacomijn van der Donk
Her work is “an instinctive play with natural materials”, she says. To her, nature flows into her work in endless and unexpected ways. Her unique style shows a passion about primitive feelings and earthly images which make each one of her creations to stand out as a small piece of art. Materials which once seemed lifeless such as a paint brush, goat hair, piano keys and horns start to live once again on women’s bodies in a fluid way.
When crafting, Netherlands based jewelry designer Jacomijn van der Donk uses her intuition more than anything else. “It’s like having a conversjewelryation with life itself. I follow the road my intuition chooses and hardly conceptualize. In this very intimate play with the materials, the piece, its form and its content arise as one,” she explains. In her goat hair designs she sees the material as both dead and alive. “I try to bridge the material world and the life source that energizes it. The inspiration for using hair, came to me from some beautiful old Japanese drawings, depicting women combining their hair in the bathroom".
