DESIGN NAME: Our Lady Collection
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Necklaces
INSPIRATION: Inspired by a deep personal devotion to Virgin Mary, I crafted a contemporary jewelry collection that embodies exclusivity and style.
Departing from generic mass-produced medals, I sought to infuse beauty and uniqueness into each design.
I extensively explored the widely recognized imagery of Virgin Mary, capturing their fundamental characteristics and visual components, then interpreting them with my unique artistic approach.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Our Lady Collection showcases the seven most revered Virgin Mary's titles worldwide. Each necklace — Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of Graces, Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, Our Lady of Lourdes, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and Our Lady of Aparecida — embodies beautiful, dainty, and unique designs.
Setting them apart from generic religious jewelry, these pieces offer exclusive designs, departing from conventional medal-shaped imagery.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Regarding wearability, the pieces function as regular necklaces to be worn around the neck, but they can also be used as bracelets by tying them around the wrist.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: April 2022 in Olando, FL US
