Grateful

9/22/2014

 
This weekend was a great gift for me. I was deeply moved to know that many of you went to the Lonja Mercantil, at the far end of town, just to see my work. I felt the same way when I read the kind messages those of you who live far away —and from those who were not able to make it to my sale— wishing me luck. I am blessed and deeply grateful to be able to share this path with such generous people. Many of us met when I first began making jewelry, and since then we have shared stories and experiences, year after year. I have seen some of you grow up (Julia, Sofía, Natalia!); others, pass through major changes with your family, partners, country, work. Some of us haven’t met in person, but when we write I feel as if we have. I never imagined that what I would most appreciate about being a jeweler was to meet such radiant and beautiful people. Each one of you is present in my heart. May you always live inspired!

Years   of   Ideas

9/12/2014

 
There is a part of me that worries that I will run out of ideas. How many more rings can I design? How many more variations can I make using the same materials? Before I begin a new piece, I always ask: what can I do differently? What if I try… so my mind becomes attentive: a design on my kilim rug becomes the border around a moonstone; the pattern of muffin tin outlines an amethyst; a frase—picked randomly from a book—evokes fields of grass, which becomes texture on an earring. The trick (I find) is to stay connected to my work by working as constantly as I can. Breakthroughs occur in the small decisions that I take, moment to moment, and that’s how one day, a path full of possibilities opens up. The scenery changes, the vistas become expansive, and I see years of ideas line up ahead. I can do this forever! I think exitedly. But then I remember: the cycle of excitement/boredom is the nature of this game, and I get back to work.

Rings   For   Life

9/2/2014

 
I´ve been wanting to make rings that can be worn everyday. Rings with personality, texture, grit. Rings that say, I've been to a foreign land. I've crossed that desert, swam that ocean, seen that sky. I´ve climbed that mountain. Rings that evoke the place where I fell in love. Rings that could have been bought off a Berber's hand. Rings of which one day could be said: they felt that pain, cried those tears, sang those songs. Rings that were never taken off. That aged when I did. That fell off when my fingers became thin and frail. THAT kind of ring.
