Today I
would like to do a spotlight on one of my favorite art jewelers, Jorge Manilla.
Jorge is
originally from Mexico, and currently lives and works in Belgium. His work is
large in scale, and somewhat unsettling in form. Making use of wood, leather,
bone, and metal, Jorge creates work which explores the finality of human life
and the metamorphosis each of us go through due to emotional and personal
processes.
I was able
to see his work in personal at the Munich Jewellery Week 2019 this March. The
exhibition is titled Consolidations and featured both Jorge, and Corrina
Goutos. Below are some images from that exhibition.
