About the Exhibition
FLARE
Light and reflection are always important topic for my work which has very strong relationship with jewellery. In this exhibition I will show 3 different body of work.
“BI” pieces, are made using dichroic mirror, which reflects two different colours. This material is used in optical applications and architecture. I was fascinated by its unusual colour reflections and knew immediately that I wanted to make jewellery with it. It’s not only about the two colours but also about the openness of perception.
“Palette” came next. Wearing one, you see strong, colourful shadows on the white corian base. The shape of the shadow changes depending on the light direction; where it comes from or where you are. For me the light is a living thing. It is moving everywhere, getting stronger or weaker, changing colour.
“FLARE” is a piece of jewellery about the sun.
It is strong memory in my mine when I saw the incredible sunrise at Atacama desert in Chile. At this moment I understood clearly why the ancients saw sun and gold as one and the same.
Flare is the explosion of sun ́s surface but at the same time flare also means reflection of the light, which happens inside of a camera lens.

About Artist
Jiro Kamata was born in Hirosaki, Japan in 1978 to a watchmaker/jeweler family. He completed his study in gemology and jewelry art in Japan but felt that he needed to get outside of his comfort zone in order to find his true passion. That took him across the continent to Germany. After finishing his training in Pforzheim, Jiro went on to study under Prof. Otto Kunzli at the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. This award winning artist has been living and working in Munich since the completion of his study in 2006. His work can be seen in many publications and public collections worldwide.
