The Bow

2025
Pieces that breathe. Made from light and time.

It all starts with the gesture. In that slight twist of the material that connects two ends and outlines an air of mystery in the middle. In the desire to unite what tends to disunite and give a structure to fragility. In overcoming distance. Cancelling out the void. To finally reach that space, that exact point where the hand manages to impose its power.

Few accessories have been more eloquent throughout history than the bow: Olympia’s bow challenges us; Fragonard’s bow woos; Marie Antoinette’s bow orders; Harrington Mann’s bow calms; Velázquez’s bow bewitches; and Degas’ bow concentrates. Always the same but always different, a subtle balance between light ornamentation and a declaration of principles.

In the series we’re presenting here, the bow turns into a body. It takes on volume. Movement. Shine. Its materials – browns, fuchsias and golds – pulsate, recalling their origin in the fabric. They reverberate in the gesture that gave them life. The gold-plated trimmings sustain their flow, like a heartbeat that never stops. They’re pieces that breathe, that display their entire nature in the fold. Made from light and time. From history. Past gestures frozen in our here and now.

Earrings and necklaces that don’t hang, but accompany.

That don’t decorate, but manifest.

Small mobile sculptures that celebrate, in their intimate swaying, the joy of reunion.
