Mirit Weinstock
Mirit Weinstock is a multimedia visual artist, fashion and jewelry designer, Ikebana and floral artist, practicing Washi (Japanese paper) art and ceramics. Founder and creative director of the handcrafted luxury brand Mirit Weinstock Jewelry. Based in Japan.
In her work, Mirit explores time and duration: the dialogue between time, nature, space, the cycles of life, and crafts that fold years of creation within them.
For Mirit, crafts, art, and jewelry inspire one another, resulting in a body of work that explores the traditional-contemporary continuum.
Immersing myself in the traditions of Ikebana, arranging a single flower to symbolize eternal life, or bending a branch inspired by a gentle autumn wind, I realized how closely intertwined my personal life was with the lives of flowers and with nature. In the series “My Life in Flowers” I create works composed of flowers, branches, leaves, and water, along with personal titles comprised of moments in my life, to express my most intimate feelings.It's my birthday, I'm not 36, features natural flowers coated in copper like a second skin emphasizing their beauty. This process seals the flowers forever within the metal, making them eternal flowers, which is beautiful but not natural. Combined with royal dahlia flowers and precious rose quartz stones, the work evokes festive feelings. But is it only a celebration?
