x15 DINAMO MEMBER RINGS

The family of rings were hand moulded in wax, with a 'DINAMO’ emboss, and then cast in solid Silver. They connect to the next with little knobs and notches, when fitted together they kiss and form a custom network. To soften their journeys – to Switzerland, Costa Rica, UK, Germany – we wrapped them in custom fabric eyelet punched wraps.

Solid Silver🌀Ring representing your evolving life path, and growth of spirit with it: 150€ (free shipping) 

Each ring is unique, made by hand, and made to size. Click to order, then get in touch with your ring size & shipping address email@garb.life (To size - if you have a ring that fits, this works well on phone). We look forward to sculpting for you!

A CALL TO BREAK BREAD: to all come together at the same table to share food and conversation. [Garb × Black History Month Norway for Kunsthall Stavanger, July 2020]
 
Responding to widespread protests following the murder of George Floyd, our social media feeds transformed into truly active spaces where live streams, organisational information and educational resource exchange drove crucial conversation across new platforms.
 
The banner steps out of the isolated digital sphere, with us, and reminds people to continue their allyship outside of social media by engaging and showing up offline as well. To aid your self-education we are sharing vital resources which are important in understanding the current shape of our world and the ways in which we must change. The resources list is curated by Black History Month Norway and this vital content is framed within a spider diagram made from seeded bread. We invited visitors to tear off a piece from our bread diagram and in doing so, feel inspired to move forward with their own anti-racist work, everyday & in every way.

A coin for a new wealth, custom made for Nea–Kosma.

(Solid Bronze, 75x60mm)

Our coin is made up of four connected parts, representing the four classical elements of nature; Water, earth, Fire and Air. The critical energy forces that sustain life. The elements are integral parts of matter or the physical universe, and the human body is a physical creation existing in the material realm. We are, therefore, made of, and governed, by the four elements.

The four elements were originally proposed to explain the nature and complexity of all matter in terms of simpler substances. Interested in this idea of simple communication and language, we're calling for finance and money to be more accessible, and widely understood, outside of the elitist financial structure. In an attempt to take the classical to the contemporary, we've adapted the meaning of each element to present our values & ideas of new wealth, in the present and future.

💧Nourishment sharing across cultures and households.

⛰ New, safe, affordable, and widely accessible materials for building homes and jobs (similar to concrete).

🔥 Excitement & momentum to protect & serve the world.

💨 The substance which facilitates listening.

They say a bag speaks for who carries it and what valuables they hold. Well, this container for valuables naturally holds (and airs out) your keys, phone & tensions.

Letting my fingers repetitively thread perfect spheres, unifying them into a new material.. we weaved beads into large power bracelets, temporary chair covers, potential foot-massaging carpets, directionless wooden lattices, until it became clear that we had created a book bag reading seat.

Made custom to order (wood, cotton, wax)

Rope rings: 60€ (+ shipping)

The Rope Rings evolved as I read about the Ama in my (first) quarantine… Ama are Japanese female pearl divers who dive without scuba gear, with nothing but a loincloth and a piece of rope connecting them to a wooden barrel. Upon surfacing, the Ama open their mouths slightly and exhale slowly, making a whistling sound known as ‘Isobue’.

(Rope, resin, & baroque pearl) Made to size.
