Kika Alvarenga

Kika Alvarenga’s jewelry begins in the body, the place where the soul finds expression. In the imperfection of a stone pulses the beauty of its unique identity. Contrasts prolong the gaze. The rough contains the delicate. Gloss casts shimmers upon matte. Weight carries
possibilities of lightness. The stone says where it wants to become a jewel, the cut listens, the metal receives. Gold allows itself to become filament, relief and crevices, talons and resting place where the stone can be suspended. And so Kika Alvarenga’s jewelry gives itself over to the body that will wear it, bringing with it a small piece of
eternity.
