I Can’t Seem to Get Rid of the Horses.

This beautiful and amazingly wild collection is the work of Birgit Marie Schmidt. I came across her work yesterday and thought I would share it with you guys. I have never seen anything like these pieces before, but I would love to own one of her necklaces. Maybe if I sell a kidney or a semi-detached townhouse, I could get my hands on one.

– The collection is a transformation of her own recurring childhood fantasies of wild horse adventures into wearable jewellery pieces. The pieces are a physical manifestations of surreal equestrian creatures, reminiscing early childhood fantasies made up sitting underneath her grandmother’s kitchen table. The repeating horse figures place emphasis on the reoccurrence of her own infantile world of make-believe.
