SARA MAS
Emerging Talent / Spain
Sara Mas is based in Spain between Valencia – Barcelona.
In the “beginning” I felt confuse, because I like many different jewelry techniques and I enjoy a lot with hundreds of materials, but soon I understood which material and which technique is going well with me . I have choose Iron like the main material, because it was a challenging job, especially when I had never worked it before.
About the other material that I have chosen was enamel.
I don’t use the techniques exactly as I learned, but I thing is interesting find your own way .
So, with this two materials I decided finally work it , because both of them speak the same language as me.
Iron , on the one hand is strong and powerful and the enamel is fragile and sensitive, like my personality . Is for the reason I’m continuously working with them.
About the techniques that I’m only “playing”, even if the current results are pleasant, I would like to use more techniques to apply with these two materials in a future.
