Notes

Simone ten Hempel is a German born artist, who considers metal to be her first language. According to Simone ‘objects are there to be used’, however she uses her work to explore many themes including the translation of childhood and photographic memories.This forged and pierced silver spoon expresses Simone’s sense of form and function through a dialogue with metal.
