Bibliography:

Artist and jeweler specializing in creating unique pieces in metal, where material experimentation becomes a means of artistic expression.

My work arises from technical knowledge of the jewelry trade, which evolves toward exploring broader formats, allowing me to develop a personal sculptural language. Through brass and work with wire and sheet, I create compositions that combine lightness, balance, and tension.

My work sits within contemporary sculpture, focusing on human relationships, emotional bonds, and the invisible structures that connect people. The figures, with simplified forms, contrast with heads constructed through interwoven threads, symbolizing the complexity of thought and emotion.

Currently, I also experiment with organic shapes inspired by nature, broadening my language toward new expressive lines.

Each piece is made entirely by hand, in a craftsmanlike manner, paying attention to detail and giving rise to original and unique sculptures.
