| Summary: | In her monograph 'Creatura Geschöpf', the Bozen-born artist Gabi Veit takes an artistic stance on one of the most elementary cultural objects in the world: the spoon. From basic geometric simplicity ? the handle as a line and the bowl as a circle ? she develops an overwhelming variety of metal objects that both raise and answer questions. Who gives and who receives, what can be taken and be taken from? It is a play on the symbolism of abundance and emptiness.0Each metal object is an expression of inexhaustible imagination and a playful engagement with the possibilities of design. The silver spoons have a head and a body, are handle and leg, are blossom, fruit and leaf. They march to a different tune and speak to one another as well as to the beholder and the user.0Each spoon tells a story.00Exhibition: Galerie Prisma, Bozen, Italy (17.05. - 07.06.2019).
