With a sculptor and art-collector father, the childhood of this A-FAD member was spent between his atelier, galleries, exhibitions and Barcelona’s Los Encantes flea market. She studied history at the UB and archaeological restoration at the ESCRBCC. Her expert hands have even touched Egyptian sarcophagi in the years she worked in collections and museums, but in 2011 she headed the Oxido techno-crafts project with Daniele Vinci, a technical architect by training and welder who experiments in the foundry.
This workshop and design studio carries out designs in 3D rooted in the knowledge of materials and techniques, handcrafting with the latest technologies. Together they design products for brands, furniture and interior architecture with a high artisan and artistic component. Today they are part of a multidisciplinary team working for clients around the world and creating what they call “productions thought by hand”.
Perhaps you have seen their artistic creations in Alkimia restaurant or in the Moritz M-Store, but also in a varied range of objects and structures that go from minimalist ice buckets and light trees to stairs you would like to climb barefoot, like la Ramona.
