TEKST
2015
CUFF and EAR BROOCHES (stainless steel, vintage faux pearls)
This small series was produced especially for the Tincal Lab Challenge "Jewelry and Architecture".
These pieces are born from a consideration of the interventions both architects and jewellers make. How arbitrary are the structures proposed? How much disruption/interruption do they cause? What's their balance with materials? How much do they fit in their landscape? Are the solutions proposed moving the problems forward or are they creating unnecessary obstacles for the sake of novelty?
The name TEKST refers to the etymological root for "fabrication" and "text", fundamental aspects of these two disciplines that engage strongly with ideas of both construction and narrative.
