Designer biography:
Alice Popescu, who graduated in architecture in Bucharest, discovered her passion for jewellery-making in Milan, where she studied at the Scuola Orafa Ambrosiana. Her work blends art and craftsmanship, with functionality as an essential part of its aesthetic value. She creates unique pieces that merge beauty and harmony, instinctively reinterpreting traditional techniques such as chasing and repoussé and anticlastic raising and transforming heritage craftsmanship into contemporary design. Each piece is wearable art - light, flowing geometries that come to life through movement, fluidity and the harmony of dance.
Collection concept:
The pieces of this collection, symbolic objects inspired by organic shapes, aim to capture a moment of nature in motion, that moment when Nature invites us to dance with her - shapes that flow gracefully, like petals dancing in the wind; curved elements evoking fluid dance movements, adding a visual dimension that celebrates harmony; a light veil lifted by a gentle breeze – symbol of femininity and seduction, that oscillates between veiling and revealing; small morning dew drops shimmering on the veins of a leaf, that speak to me of grace and balance. My creations transform this delicacy and fluid energy of nature into wearable art, as a small tribute to the fleeting beauty of life.
