Since
I was a child, before I was able to read and write, I had access to paints
and brushes.
I
graduated in Publicity and Marketing. I worked at that profession until to
be totally “embraced” by Jewelry.
It
is a fascinating art, not only by beauty of materials, but the myth
character, the longevity, the high number of techniques, conquered me
right away.
Many
ways was gone through several forms of artistic expression, to hit this
point. I had the opportunity to observe and learn with great master of
jewelry, the pioneers of new schools in my country.
My
work with metals, gems and alternative materials is all handicraft work. I
make unique peaces, created and manufactured personally, in account of
that, I am a “Jewelry Author”. I am designer of collections for
jewelry makers and jewelry shops too. I teach in Atelier Márcia Pompei at
São Paulo – SP – Brasil. I am consultant and write articles for web
sites and magazines. I produce didactical materials (hand-books and
videos) about several areas that make jewels.
I
join the teaching area of that art by love. The sensation I feel is so
gratifying that certainly it will be the same thing to many other peoples.
Besides, it is so ancient, few propagated, we stand upon adventure to lost
techniques, history and culture.
Among
the more important events where I presented myself, I relate the XXIV
FENINGER (1997 February) where I showed my jewels with a group of jewelry
designers, the first one to present in this important event of Brazilian
jewelry. The International Weekend “Maison et Objet Paris 97” (1997
September), in France.
My
inspiration source is too vast, it is the Life. No doubt, the nature is
very important in this procedure, mysteries, relations with peoples.
Flora, fauna, minerals, opposite elements accomplishing themselves,
creating permanence one to other: Man-woman; black-white; day-night;
laugh-tear; fire-water; positive-negative; dirty hands by the work at the
atelier-jewel shining and fascinating.
