Production Technology: The production can be made by laser-cut in metal sheet (gold, silver or stainless steel) or casting in different metals
Design Challenge: The challenge of this project lay in crafting fresh designs that maintained the recognizable essence of Our Lady figures for the audience.
Research: My research delved into the most popular of Virgin Mary imagery, capturing their essence and visual elements, and reimagining them with my distinctive drawing style.
Inspiration: Inspired by a deep personal devotion to Virgin Mary, I crafted a contemporary jewelry collection that embodies exclusivity and style.

Departing from generic mass-produced medals, I sought to infuse beauty and uniqueness into each design.

I extensively explored the widely recognized imagery of Virgin Mary, capturing their fundamental characteristics and visual components, then interpreting them with my unique artistic approach.
Project Duration: April 2022 in Olando, FL US
Operation Flow: Regarding wearability, the pieces function as regular necklaces to be worn around the neck, but they can also be used as bracelets by tying them around the wrist.
