An Alleweireldt designs pieces so that each one would reach the point of exact balance between introduction and recognition. She has a subtle confrontation in mind of past and new shapes and forms, in order to cast a new light on every dimension of the object's life and meaning, revealing its depth and full beauty.
Because "precious" is traditionally equated to "rare", we tend to underestimate the beauty of outwardly humble or common objects and materials.
The structure, shape, color and combination of materials like vinyl records, seeds from the rainforest, cord, wood and glass with precious metals and diamonds fascinate her endlessly.
