Urban Gems — One Hundred Rings

 









The small coloured rings came from the streets—elastic bands collected across cities until they formed a group of one hundred. Each one was a tiny urban relic, shaped by chance, pressure, weather, and the rhythms of the places where they were found. Exhibited later in a Belgrade showroom, they became a constellation of overlooked materials elevated into a delicate taxonomy of the everyday. The series was never about accumulation but about attention: learning to see what is already there. I no longer collect them; I simply notice them. The possibility of restarting the series hovers like the rings themselves—light, circular, unresolved.
