The MIVERVA ear adornments started, like all my creations, with an alchemy of inspiration and the need of experimenting and pushing boundaries of creative expression and technical knowledge.
The Inspiration side comes from the Etruscan Mythology. Minerva is the most important Roman goddess and one of the three Roman deities in the Capitoline Triad, along with Jupiter and Juno.
She is the Goddess of Wisdom, strategic warfare, justice, law and victory. Not a patron of violence such as Mars, she is often depicted with her sacred owl, symbolizing her association with wisdom and knowledge. She is also considered to be the “idea” and the plan for the Universe personified.
The necessity of exploring new creative expressions has always been an ingrained feature of my personality.
The idea of experiencing new materials combined with traditional techniques is both exciting and enchanting. It is a poem written without a pen, on pages of “non-paper”. The poem is there but we cannot get our heads around on how to read or interpret it, as it throws our conventional interpretation into confusion.
Research and development in jewellery is the only way for a modern and unconventional narrative.
