Statement
This research delves into the interplay between different materials, exploring how they communicate and enrich one another.
The contrast of colours plays a pivotal role: Marta is drawn to black for its depth and mystery, a shade that holds an entire universe within its darkness. Green, on the other hand, evokes the genesis of new energy, a vibrant force of renewal. These two colours stand as dual facets of existence – shadow and light. They oppose each other, yet neither can truly exist without the other.
Material
Brooch 1: Bakelite, brass, shells, pigment, resin, steel wire
Brooch 2: vinyl, brass, iron filings, resin, pigment, steel wire
Marta Dobrynina, an interior designer who graduated from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels in 2007, developed a fascination with small objects connected to the human body. She later studied contemporary jewelry design at Rhock Academy, earning a laureate distinction in 2018. Marta established her atelier, attended workshops, and began participating in exhibitions.
A member of BeCraft since 2019 and active member of Les Brucelles asbl since 2022, she has exhibited in Germany, Italy, Spain, Romania, France, and Belgium.
To Marta, a piece of jewelry is not merely an adornment; it illustrates architecture in miniature, where the delicate equilibrium between emptiness and fullness assumes paramount importance. The object itself holds as much significance as the space that envelops it.
