The Design

About Desire in Life Série de Joias

Desire in Life é uma série de joias construída a partir de formas ósseas esculturais. A série é composta por três peças. Um anel em forma de crânio apresenta uma figura segurando um diamante, expressando o desejo por riqueza. Um segundo anel é formado pelo cruzamento de costelas numa estrutura triangular. Um colar sustenta uma gema vermelha em forma de coração, engastada num esterno tridimensional. Modelos em cera são esculpidos para dar origem às formas ósseas e, em seguida, fundidos em ouro. Partes da série apresentam acabamento em ouro negro 18K. A série convida à reflexão sobre o desejo e a vida.
