• Karin makes versatile jewellery with mixed materials, including PVC
• Time plays a central role in her creative process
• She values the experience of slow accumulation

For Karin Seufert artistic freedom means above all the freedom to decide how she spends her time. Throughout her career she has repeatedly stepped away from certainty in favour of curiosity, first moving from traditional goldsmith training into contemporary jewellery, and later embracing unconventional materials such as PVC. “A few square metres of PVC are often enough for me to work with for an entire year,” Karin says. Her work is known for hollow architectural forms, conceptual investigations and meticulously constructed surfaces, built from thousands of tiny individual elements. Her pieces grow slowly over weeks and months, forming structures that can appear compact and almost heavy, while remaining physically light. This aesthetic gives visbility to time, establishing it as a central value within the work.
