Tami Eshed – Israel – « Recycled Powder » collection – T Squared – Selected for AUTOR 2016
« Keep thinking green! » says Tami. « In this specific collection, I have decided to create a limited edition of pieces, which are manufactured in an eco-friendly manner. Instead of dying the pins, necklaces and rings with a standard Epoxy paint, I have decided to use the powder of leftover metal paint as the main coloring ingredient. »
Columbian fashion artist and designer Daniel Ramos Obregón’s ‘Outrospection’ project explores the various meanings of the self through relational artistic practice. Crafted from porcelain casts, gold-plated brass metal frames and leather harnesses, Obregón’s collection is made to be worn and interacted with in a study of self-representation.
Isabelle Busnel necklace My work explores all the stereotypes of classical jewellery. After a first collection playing with the kitsch imagery of cheap and popular jewellery (owls, skulls, cameos, tigers…), my second body of work focuses on the aesthetics of pearls. In my last new collection I investigate the attraction of stones. I am still using silicone rubber as material but this time I am adding translucent coloured silicone to mimic stones. White is still predominant in my necklaces and magnetic brooches but I give them a new twist with a large range of colours.
For AUTOR 2016, I am planning to show a mix of the “pearls” and the “stones” collections.
