Title: Margareth Sandström, Peter de Wit
Description: Margareth Sandström and Peter de Wit commuted for several years between their two home countries, Sweden and the Netherlands. The artistic nourishment and freedom that the periods in the Netherlands gave them they conveyed to it artistically provincial Sweden.Both Peter de Wits and Margareth Sandström's work have an aesthetic power which makes them timeless. Although they have worked together for almost forty years, both have retained their distinctive character: Peter de Wit's intellectually sharp as well abstract worlds are diametrically opposed to Margareth Sandström's often organic design. If he has sought his inspiration in geometry, she has retrieved hers in nature, in seed capsules, bladder wrack.00Margareth Sandström and Peter de Wit broke with the tradition of how and where jewelry can be placed on the body. This freedom was shared by the outside world. One eye-catching jewelry over the shoulder, in the middle of the chest or on the back, instead as hitherto discreet on the suit collar. The bearers of these jewelry can thus take part of this new trend in the art world, which is about portable and artistically innovative objects. Portable body art. Margareth and Peter have participated in exhibitions all over the world and are represented at museums including the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, Rijksdienst Visual Arts in Amsterdam and others private collections in Sweden, Holland, USA, Canada." - Kerstin Wickman.
