Schmuckdesign aus Geldnoten

Wenn ich die Arbeiten von Tine De Ruysser so sehe, dann denke ich sofort an Reichtum! Woran das liegt? Ganz einfach! Die Schmuckdesignerin hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, Armbänder und Ketten und anderen Schmuck aus Geldscheinen herzustellen! Wirklich mal eine andere Art von Schmuck, welche mir schon zusagt.

For this collection I considered money to be like gold. After all, paper money came into existence because people did not want to carry their gold around when travelling, mostly for safety reasons. When “paper money” was first used it was backed up by a gold reserve: there was no more money printed then there was gold in the bank. Money was worth gold. Through time the connection between money and gold has become less transparent. The relationship has almost turned around: now gold is worth money. There is much more money around than there is gold to back up its value.
