Fritz Maierhofer


Fritz Maierhofer is a Jeweller from Australia. Maierhofer is of the opinion that jewellery acts as a communication tool, in which the wearer is able to send messages to the viewer. He feels that jewellery is a medium which should share equal rights on the podium with the more common arts being painting, sculpture and architecture. Upon creating his sculptural masterpieces he prefers to manufacture his jewellery in larger proportions as Maierhofer creates his Jewellery pieces to be miniature sculptures which are able to be hung on walls and displayed when not being adorned on the body.
