This project explores the tension between raw material and their residue, advocating for material sustainability. Craftsmanship has been an integral part of my life since childhood in my father’s workshop. Today, as a Jewelry Designer, I have embarked on a journey to discover the correct raw material to serve my creative process. During a routine emptying of waste bins, mounds of sawdust revealed themselves as miniature cliffs; forming a natural pattern symbolizing the passage of time. The desire to encapsulate this moment gave rise to the project: “WoodStone”. The connection between this material and the human body is materialized through classical goldsmithing techniques, bridging environmental responsibility with high end pieces.
