notes:
The 'Golden Still Life' collection is a richly gilded limited edition based on the "Still Life" collection, designed in 2004 for the Koninklije Tichelaar Makkum.

"The title of the collection, Still Life, refers to the mechanism of the memory that, if we can even remember it, turns out to be so different from the frozen reality. It also refers to the life and all the crawling of these creatures, which are a binding element and because of the way in which they have been mixed, sampled, and reused by Job, they form a direct link to the reality of his generation."
