Ouroboros

18K GOLD, 2024

Crafted in 18-carat gold, this ring directly references the ancient symbol of the Ouroboros—one of the most recognisable alchemical emblems, embodying the eternal cycle of cause and effect, life and death, as well as fertility. The form and details of the design draw upon fifteenth-century visual representations of this motif.

The work forms part of the collection of the Central Museum of Textiles in Łódź.
