Mariana Acosta professor at sustainable jewelry class of Universidad Gestalt de Diseño Xalapa, Mexico :

« Aug_Jan_2014/15 : This is my students work. The class goal was to make a piece of contemporary jewelry from waste materials that are considered useless outside the creative realm. A dialogue between the maker and the material is enabled through a process of profound research and experimentation. Understanding the possibilities of the material to be transformed into an out of the ordinary body ornament was central to the success of the work. I feel very proud that some of them were able to develop their own personal exchange with the material«

Can you guess the material from which this piece was made? Have you seen how Styrofoam sheets are made?

/ El material del que esta hecha esta pieza es increíble. Han visto como están hechas las láminas de unicel? De bolitas! Carla Sánchez - alumna at Universidad Gestalt de Diseño Xalapa

In México, brands of snacks like chips usually have this « tazos » inside their chip bags as a collectable item for years now. They usually depict cartoon characters. My student created this amazing piece which interestingly shines like it was made of precious stones due to the holographic prints in them. / Esta pieza esta hecha de « tazos » que por su naturaleza holográfica brillan como si fueran piedras preciosas.
