ANTES QUE TUDO

Divergent forces that complete and refute each other, like opposite poles of the same path. The curved wave that builds and transforms the absence as an essence in itself. Enclosure of nothingness, a mutant void filled through repetition, thinking the end as a restart. Being the same and discovering itself another, the transparency of its becoming fading away reveals an embryo, a body that no longer recognizes itself for what it is, but for what it no longer is. This work proposes a sequence of brooches constructed using the same principle, procedure, and materials (glass beads, nylon thread, and silver). Each piece is a unique one and each form and volume tells what it will become while being made.
