Germany
Statement
Bauer makes use of traditional materials and techniques, such as enamelling. Her neckpieces are constructed with an architectural approach. The forms are simple but intricate at the same time and pay attention to detail. It is clear that wearability is of the utmost importance to the artist, as even the larger pieces seem to maintain a close relationship to the body.
