Each piece is more than an object.
It is tangible emotion. A bridge
between the intimate and the visible.
A subtle expression of wild nature.
Carmen works with metal as one cultivates a way of life. Each piece is born from direct contact with the material. She doesn't aim to replicate forms, but to reveal the story within them.
Her works may emerge from scratch or be reborn from jewels that carry stories. She reinterprets the inherited, reinvents the forgotten.
Each piece she delivers is not just an object. It is a tangible emotion. A bridge between the intimate and the visible. A way to heal, to preserve. A legacy to be worn."
FORGING METAL
AND MEANING
FORMATION
THE DISCIPLINE OF DISCOVERY
Trained initially in sculpting and then in jewelry, she learned that it is understanding the process what gives life.
Like when a perfectly drawn tree was rejected because even though it was technically perfect, it lacked what matters most—the representation of life. You must capture its soul.
Since then, her craft has been about listening to materials, reading textures, letting them speak. Her journey began with sculpture, and that legacy remains: each jewel is a miniature sculpture meant to coexist with the body, to accompany it, not overpower it.

CREATIVE PROCESS
CRAFTING
FOR PRESENCE
Carmen's relationship with technique is both disciplined and free. She explores, tests, learns. She works with her hands like an artisan—shaping metal, molding wax, using tools with quiet focus.
Mastery allows the material to express itself without losing its identity. She creates pieces with strong presence—yet they are light, harmonious, designed to move with the body. They are worn naturally. They aim to create beauty, but also a sense of well-being. A jewel should be felt, not just seen.
CREATIVE PROCESS
Carmen's life as an artist is inseparable from her profound love of drawing. From the earliest moments of her journey, the pencil became an extension of her thoughts — a direct line between imagination and paper. Sketching is not just a technique for her; it is a daily ritual. Her drawings serve as blueprints for pieces that feel alive, personal, and deeply connected to the hand that dreamed it into being.
