Fluid jewellery frozen in timeless metal.
Every design from my collections visually represents water as a life-giving element that also corresponds to the feminine energy. As water is the basis of life, the thing that gives rise to all living things, it is also the beginning idea for every piece of jewellery.
There was a time when man travelled for days or months to be with someone or somewhere. There was a time when man wrote letters and you could see him and feel him through his writing. In our time you meet people and go places through our screens.
In this collection, “compasses to elsewhere’’ I have created round, magnetic backed brooches that have both raised glass ornaments as well as negative space. These brooches evoke the visual qualities of compasses and other way finding apparatuses, but also a surreal material language.
Handcrafted jewellery made with upcycled materials (water bottles, shampoo, conditioner)and silver. Geometric and colourful shapes that remind of glass.

Paper (l)imitations
The quest of the "Messed up" Origami collection can be summed up as imitating paper in silver. It aims to preserve the visual properties of paper while overcoming its limitations in terms of portability and durability by changing the material. The aspect of limitation is also highlighted in another way.
The symbiotic relationship of the perceived material properties with the aesthetics of the objects gives my work its meaning. The real, tangible physical surface and its visual texture evoke a sensory experience that resonates with our emotions. They raise expectations that can be misleading - or that are intentionally subverted and made incongruous, dissonant.
Read MoreWear the art, choose the story! Jewelry is one of the most essential ways for self-expression and enhancement of our personality. Baring this in mind, each collection I create starts from a narrative that is carefully integrated into the pieces I present.
Read MoreEvery year millions of oak trees are planted …by mistake because squirrels forget where they hide most of their acorns. By accident, ecosystems are created and the planet lives on. Failures can lead to a whole new world, literally.
The meaning of invisible language in my work becomes an important material. In Korea, when expressing the act of attaching jewelry to the body, a slightly different word is used, not the word wear. It is a verb 'fill'. My formative languages inspired by this are verbs. In other words, there is a moving element in all forms, and its meaning expands and grows according to the viewer.
Read More"The materials we use are leftovers from Kenosis carpentry, which works in solid wood with noble essences. This joinery harnesses the fantastic knots and characters in the wood, thus using lots of resin to seal the cracks. We are in a privileged place to use everything that falls off the workbench, in the workshop.
Read MoreIn my vision a line is a free path that is processed in space and time in the way that its movement becomes the free and sensual CURVE who bends and change direction gradually ~ such lines convey the feelings of infinite, of loops and comfort and ease or grace and playfulness, as well as an attractiveness and seductive quality as they remind us of the human body.
Deeply inspired by nature and organic elements around us, Madalina likes to create organic, perfectly imperfect jewelry with textures and shapes that evoke a deep sense of humanity. In capturing the inspiration and turning it into jewelry, the crafting process involves casting the stones, instead of setting them for more organic and natural shapes.
„Through the darkness“ explores the relationship between hope and despair. The current state of the world has left me feeling the depths of despair with little expectation of a change for the better. So where does hope come from?
Read MoreReturning to my first love, painting, this collection brings it to a wearable format. Exploring the artistic potential of copper as a substrate for oil painting was a great pleasure and a space for playfulness.
The collection consists of interpretations of Stefan Caltia's paintings and is a tribute.

All of these create ORIGINS Collection
Throughout my life, I've struggled with an inner conflict between the obvious beauty of nature and the hidden beauty that I discovered mostly during childhood. Nature's Hidden Beauties Collection is an artistic expression that was born from my personal experience of insect phobia.
Read MoreOver time, like most people that create contemporary jewelry, I tried makeing most tipes of pieces, I studied different techniques and tried to find my own style. At the end of the day I began to study and create jewelry to bring to life an expresion of what I wished too see in the world.
