Description/
In his pendants, Daniel Kruger has no difficulty masterfully mixing the most diverse materials, from gold to dried leaves, from simple glass to amber or malachite or coral, from small vegetal elements to iron shavings. They are all part of the vast and open-ended group of materials that give rise to contemporary artworks, and by using them Kruger confirms that he is experimenting with objects of an alchemical stripe. Starting from the idea of apotropaic functions that ward off evil influences and protect the weaker parts of the body, Kruger tells a new story of our present day, a today dominated by fear of an unknown that no-one imagined we could experience.
