With the small Naturalia collection, I explore the relationship between nature and form.
I take as my reference flowers and leaves from spring meadows, understood not only as figurative models, but as temporary events.
My work stems from a personal inner Wunderkammer: a collection of images, smells, and sensations linked to spring,
to flowers that smell of fresh air and the beginning of a new season.
These immaterial elements are translated into concrete objects.
Through a process of selection and abstraction,
the transition from the organic to the constructed generates essential and permanent forms.
The jewel thus becomes an instrument of my memory: it retains what is ephemeral,
transforms sensory experience into matter, preserves a bloom that never fades.
What is born in spring remains.
There are five modular earrings in rose and yellow gold-plated brass (silver pin) and green Aventurine, a stone that holds great meaning.
Each earring can be worn either as a simple flower on the lobe or with the leaves attached to it.
