Bio:
Chilean Artist / jeweler and graphic designer, resident in Barcelona. I studied contemporary artistic jewelry at the Massana School, Center for Arts and Design in Barcelona. I have an extensive career in national and international exhibitions. I am an active member of the Catalonia Craft and Fashion Trade Center (CCAM), and of three artistic associations: Association of contemporary jewelers of Chile Joya Brava A.G La brújula Art in transit, Chilean artistic association. Association of Artists and Designers of Allada Vermell handcraft market, Barcelona.
Artist Statement:
"My proposal is based on reusing and recycling: once the object loses the meaning for which it was made, I take it and appeal to the intuitive transformation of its artificial materials already discarded. I keep the traces of the object’s previous use, its form, to what it reminds us, and, at the same time, I highlight the added value of the work done by hand. It is the dialogue and the delicate and respectful treatment of the materials that asserts the artisan's trade, and this work is translated into a unique piece, object, or a tangible design with a DNA of color and diversity.
