COLLECTION ORIGIN

Jewelry can be worn as a memorabilia from a distant time & place, a symbolism of the ever-changing nature of memories.

It all started when I turned sea shells collected from the Rockaway beach into jewelry pieces. Ever since, I’ve been archiving shells from my travels.

I work with artisans from a small town called Taxco, the biggest silvermining town. Sadly, this craft is a dying art - all silversmiths are 60 years old or older.

Odissea was born not only out of my love for creating beauty from nature's spontaneity, but also a greater desire to preserve the silversmithing art in Mexico.
My hope is to eventually build a craft school in Taxco to inspire younger generations to preserve this craft.
