Louise Nippierd is one of Norway’s, and perhaps Europe’s, most interesting jewellery artists today. Artistic expression is part of the explanation, and choosing aluminium as the material is another. “When I understood what could be accomplished with aluminium, the possibilities literally flowed over me. I saw all possible colours and shapes before my eyes. Aluminium is also an environmentally friendly material, 100 percent recyclable, and that also appealed to me,” says Nippierd. Her highly imaginative jewellery, created in a special process with sulphuric acid and dye baths, is like nothing you will find in a conventional jewellery shop. (Shape Magazine 1/06)
