LIVIA ZAHARIA

Designer biography:

Zaharia Livia is a Romanian architect who started developing her interest in jewellery making through digital means around 2018. She wanted to explore the possibilities offered by 3d modelling and how digital creations can come to life. It began with larger objects like the Spotlight pavilion of 2019 and smaller ones like engagement rings for friends going simultaneously. Since then, she has opened up to the public on social media and the Internet. Nowadays, her pieces can be considered unique in each case, featuring shape or setting challenges, movement, or interchangeability. Each piece is an example of how precise controls such as formulas and equations can lead to natural looking shapes.

Collection concept:

Beloved food (?)
Sometimes food inspires us. Not only in the kitchen while we prepare it, or at the table where we enjoy it, but also in shape and form. Memories and experiences are tied to our taste. Using materials which are most certainly not edible this collection remembers some very familiar elements. The sweet paste filled Nocciola, or the Bird’s nest- are only some of them. At first people might wonder where the connection is but we all have to keep in mind- some of humanity's most persistent memories revolve around food. So those treasured memories come back in a way that will last longer than the food itself and reflect what matters most.
