LARISSA LANDINEZ
Statement:
I create Jewelry inspired by geometrical shapes and nature, representing the personality of each individual that chooses to wear it. I found kinetics fun and playful, so I incorporate it when creating.
My techniques and designs are very simple showing my inner personality. I search and try to preserve traditional jewelry techniques and materials avoiding industrial processes. I want this jewelry to be timeless and sophisticated adding precious and semiprecious gem stones,
ensuring each individual piece doesn’t seem cluttered or overwhelming.
“Passion and love are my main tools to create jewelry”
