Description
The jewellery artist Konrad Mehus has held an important position in Norwegian art since the end of the 1960s. His objects significantly stretch our notion of what jewellery can be: it is not merely adornment, but rather a means of communication. Using silver as a material and jewellery as a medium, Mehus tells stories with social relevance and political wit. Konrad Mehus' works are characterised by humour and warmth, but also by irony and taking an objective stance.
