Although an architect by profession, Chilean Vania Ruiz of Casa Kiro Joyas always needed to create things with her hands. Jewelry surprised her, allowing her to bring together what she liked to do as a child: tell stories, paint and build objects. Using resin, silver, copper and found objects, she creates pieces by casting, painting and traditional jewellery making techniques, always seeking to discover and understand different aspects of her cultural identity. See her work below.
