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.
