Sculptural adaptation of a theme and object that has made literary epochs.

Based on the pressed moulded foil of a madeleine box, bas-reliefs in similar tones and sizes are created by casting with coloured plaster, which have been reworked and are virtually unique.

The reliefs are reflected in stainless steel sheets that have been bent downwards slightly beyond the right angle and covered with different printed foils - convex, concave, as the case may be.

In the interplay of all these facets, the original form gains contour.
