COLLECTION
The jewellery in the impression collection is reminiscent of a fossilised jumbled jewellery box whose memory has been captured in silver and gold. The collection is part of a collaborative project with a perfume creator and a creative writer. Exploring the subject of fragmented memories, the collaboration found its physical space in an exhibition during Milan design week in April 2023. Each piece of jewellery is associated with a short story and a scent that all together create new narratives.The Memory of a small gem-ring are associated with this scent and story:
Pompelmo Olio Essenziale
A mensa era una guerra
di bucce strizze dentro agli occhi
e bocche storte
ai grandi, alle loro maniere, alle loro buone manie.
//
At the school canteen it was a war
of peels squeezed into the eyes
and crooked mouths
to the adults, to their manners, to their innocent obsessions
