Intuitive, organic, minimalistic art jewelry for the contemporary woman
I am an artist making small sculptures made to be worn as jewelry. I choose metal as a medium because I love its feel, malleability, durability, and the patinas it acquires. I love to give form to sheet metal with just fire and pounding. I feel we should try to minimize our impact on nature’s course, that is why I’m inclined to organic shapes and patinas that occur in nature. I'm interested in the process of time and its effect on things, to nature's unpredictability, but also its repetitiveness.
My latest collection of enameled jewelry is inspired by the plants I am surrounded by. I started collecting leaves and plants from my field and garden, usually weeds with interesting silhouettes that I find in my walks. I press, dry and use these plants as stencils for my enamel work. I pick contrasting colors, or embrace the natural colors of the copper oxidizing under a clear enamel coat. I work in a playful, unrestricted, loose, and asymmetrical manner, but am very precise when the leaves need to be lifted so as to not drop the sieved enamel powder on top of the leaf into the piece. I have to carefully pick up the pieces and torch fire them until the glass powder fuses to the metal.
My inspiration comes from my own environment and my lifestyle. My studio is in my home. I live with my husband and son in an antique rural brick and adobe home with two feet wide walls and high ceilings in the “Argentine Pampas”. We have horses just because I love them, cows that give us fresh organic milk, chickens, dogs, cats, and a vegetable garden. We have a cattle tank with a windmill that pumps underground water for the cattle drinking water, supplies drip irrigation for the vegetable garden, is used as a swimming pool in the summer; and fireplaces and wood-burning stoves in the house for wintertime.
