ABOUT MY WORK
GAIA
brooches
black porcelain + brass
2021
For some years I have been dealing with the topic of species extinction and in my research I keep coming across the dynamic processes and controlling forces of nature.
Initial for this work is the confrontation with the topic of increasing allergy, personally initiated by extreme allergic reaction of my son, also to many pollen species.
Indeed, the lightweight pollen grains show up as aesthetic and extremely complex marvels of nature. The symbolic meaning of pollen as a symbol of our symbiotic life on planet earth has fascinated me.
Visibly, allegorized eye patches, are removed
The view becomes clear for the special beauty of nature,
which is constantly evolving and never stands still.
Imagine, mother nature speaks:
„ I don´t really need people, but people need me.
Whatever you do, it determines your fate, not mine!
My oceans, my soil, my flowing streams and my forests, they all can take you.
Or leave you.
I am prepared to evolve. Are you? “
All beings, including humans, are born in nature and from nature.
Mother Earth is also called GAIA and at last, everything depends in nature´s bosom.
My work, made of porcelain is significantly fragile. Peristent and uncomfortable describes the brochures, so my statement is cut and dried.

EXINE
brooch / necklace
2020
(latin „outer cell wall of the pollen grain “, primarily serves to protect the germ cell
against all environmental influences)
When dealing with the topic of global species extinction,
I focused on bee pollen.
The choice of materials and the formal language of my work illustrate the fragility
of ecosystems.
Visibly, allegorized eye patches are removed.
The view becomes clear for the special beauty of nature, which is constantly evolving
and never stands still.
Be attentive !

FLUX
ring
unique pictograms about pollen
2019
(latin "physical quantity", a physical quantity is a characteristic if it has a value)
Julia Münzing makes a special cosmos visible in her new work, transforms the lightweights, creates powerful rings.
Based on raster electron micrographs of the most common species of pollen in southern germany, also concerning the health of her son, the respective title shows the exact derivation.
Urbanization, climate change - consequences, such as endangered biodiversity, scarcity natural habitat, including the fight of the modern earth dwellers against allergies - this is a real context for flora and
fauna and humans.
FLUX is a communication tool for nature and culture.
This jewelery can be a reason to re-think responsible use of resources, respectful treatment of nature and to take good care in general.
The individual models are created in wax by means of a self-developed additive process and then manufactured per sand casting or cire-perdu method in traditional japanese alloys such as shibuichi , shakudo and bronze or sterling silver.
