Maria Cristina Bellucci workshop : Workshop abstract

We are ever more surrounded by utilitarian objects in our daily life; these objects represent the things that make up our individual worlds.
By changing the way we look at things around us, we will activate our creativity and expand our conception of the everyday.

The objective of the workshop is to revisit the ordinary objects, deconstruct and decontextualize them in order to create new forms, change their original purpose and give them new meanings.
“Transformaction” workshop intend to bring together jewellery artists, designers and other playful people to re-imagine the ordinary, experience new creative opportunities and create challenging contemporary jewellery objects.

Maria Cristina Bellucci:   The work I’ve been producing over the last years explores ordinary objects and ways of taking them out of their ordinary context;  by transforming readymades I extend and reconfigure their properties.  I find that an interesting way to reflect on perception and sensitivity and work on this qualities.

Maria Cristina Bellucci  Necklace: 12 necklace 3 – 2012  Coloured pencils, silver

Arianna Pittini:   having travelled to England to study , I gained a Bachelor degree and Master degree in jewellery design.  Contemporary Jewellery fascinates me; I enjoy investigating how worthless materials may be ascribed value when placed in the context of jewellery.  My approach to materials and practice is intuitive, I enjoy using a unprecious materials, in particular paper, fabric, iron. I have taught Art and Design in England and I am lecturing  in “jewellery design”  in an Art Accademy in Rome.

Got the BLUES with Yoko SHIMIZU

Yoko Shimizu

« My approach to jewellery often begins with a focus on the relationship between the jewellery piece and the human body.  I look for simplicity and harmony in this relationship through the process of making: experimenting with materials and forms, constructing one part at a time, pausing to see the effect on the body. In the end I feel the need to leave an imperfection or add or eliminate an element, so that there is something a bit off or unexpected, at times in search of tension, rigor, sometimes for a touch of warmth. »

Transformation « The theme of the series of necklaces in colored resin is ‘Transformation’. It is a part of a study in the transformation of forms, materials and colors. Pieces of wood are transformed into resin and the surface of wood is transferred onto the surface of resin. Transformation from wood to resin, from natural to artificial, from opaque to transparent. The transformation continues with the movement of the wearer and reflection of light, losing something but gaining something at the same time. »
