Tone Vigeland
by Cecilie MALM-BRUNDTLAND (9783897901858)

"A chain is always only as strong as its weakest link"; this motto expresses the aims and ideals of Tone Vigeland's work in jewellery. Consummate craftsmanship throughout, down to the smallest details, is its quintessential quality. She usually works in pliable metals, such as silver and lead. Her palette ranges between blue-grey and black. She oxidises silver until it is black and looks almost like iron; she forms steel, on the other hand, into ornamental, metallic lacework. Her work definitely reveals echoes of the Norwegian Viking jewellery tradition as well as contemporary influences from the austere landscape of her native country Norway. Most recently she has widened her range to include jewellery sculpture and large-scale objects. As a sculptor she fuses stone and lead in highly charged aesthetic unities which represent the diverse fabric of nature and culture.
