In these constellations, the artificial is not dismissed — it’s reimagined. Faux opals, imitation stones, lab-made materials: not substitutes, but provocations. These works explore our impulse to replicate, to assign value, to believe. Imitation becomes reflection, not deception — a mirror held to systems of desire, belief, and worth.
Ideas that make distinctive connections with jewellery are the inspiration for Peter Deckers’ practice, which is highlighted through a series of engaging artworks with inspiring topics. He is interested in how value is perceived and how that is communicated through objects we wear. Making processes and value philosophies are both the inspiration for his active practice which is highlighted through a revolving series of engaging artworks and installations.
Artificial Universe is Peter Deckers’ second solo exhibition at The National.
