Knowledge - Consciousness

Each object tells us a story

This story starts from the love for the manual processing of the material and from the various interdisciplinary connections aimed at creating something. The resulting creative process comes from ingenuity and intuition.
 
The task of designing and implementing (technical) mastery and (professional) dexterity leads to a profound awareness of intellectual manual experience.
 
Beyond appearances, the material (a jewel) represents the fruit of a journey that has its fulfillment in a successful and complete, aesthetic and functional object. “Each Material has different communication needs and requirements; each story it tells is unique in its kind and cannot be repeated and for this reason it must be listened to and told through a correct and careful Creative Process that knows how to grasp all the aspects to highlight, transmitting the right information highlighting the uniqueness, through solutions studied and created ad hoc to best respond to the present needs and requirements ----- through a path that can be defined as Applied Emotional Communication at a Manual and Technical level.”
 
I'm interested in how goldsmiths, with their possibilities, with their works, have explored the skills that have been handed down for millennia and have tried to develop the techniques in a contemporary use through very different approaches.
 
The spectator is not enchanted by material values or gems, but invited to discover a new value, to subject the jewel that mimics and copies historical forms to a different mode of contemplation.
 
(The restyling) Redesign does not mean (erasing) the past, but rather returning the present work to the past (dating back to the past)
 
Past and present merge into his very personal artistic language
 
On the one hand, the newly conceived unites with what has lasted for millennia. On the other hand, like their colleagues in the visual arts, goldsmiths also strive to be both discoverers and creators in a technical, artisanal and artistic competition.
