DISCOVER THE DESIGNER
Romanian (English below)
Sunt arhitect de profesie si designer de bijuterii autodidact, cu o pasiune pentru culoare, textura si forme organice, fluide. Am inceput sa creez bijuterii in 2009, experimentand cu diferite materiale si tehnici, pentru ca mai apoi sa incep timid sa particip la concursuri, expozitii si targuri de profil. Bijuteriile sunt calea mea de evadare din „liniile drepte si colturile ascutite” ale meseriei pe care o practic cu placere, dar care nu-mi ofera libertatea creativa a designului.
I’m an architect by formation and a self-taught jewelry designer, with a passion for color, texture and fluid, organic shapes. In 2009 I began creating jewelry as a hobby, experimenting with various materials and later on taking part in contests, exhibitions and trade shows. In jewelry making I found a refugee from my day job, as "There are no straight lines or sharp corners in nature" (Antonio Gaudi).
