Twisted Coagulation –
Extremely colourful

From 13 December 2025 to 17 January 2026, Galerie Door will host a colourful exhibition in which artist Danni Schwaag focuses on the material galalith and the “twisted” life of an artist. The ingenious and refined wearable works of art by Danni Schwaag in the exhibition Twisted Coagulation are the result of research into the material galalith and into her own “being”. Galalith is a casein material that is over 100 years old. Until the 1930s, galalith was widely used as a cheaper substitute for precious stones. At the time, it was produced in many different colours. Danni Schwaag has explored the limits of this unusual synthetic material. Limits that she also encounters in her life as an artist. Central to her work is the question of whether “twisted” thinking is perhaps the most honest form of clarity. Because, as she reasons, where something twists, tension arises. And a thought that wraps itself around itself can lead to insight – or to a knot. And sometimes a knot is not so bad; something can also get caught by it. Admire the twisted constructions and beautiful knots in this colourful exhibition by Danni Schwaag.
