Irene Shoshana
Irene Shoshana is a Los Angeles-based jewelry designer. She draws her sensibility from her international roots: Born in Marrakesh, raised in Jerusalem, and immersed in fashion and the arts while living in Paris, New York and Mexico City. In the 1980s she opened Outremer, a boutique in Soho that launched young European fashion designers along with her own creations. In the early aughts she undertook jewelry making at BJO (BiJouterie, Joaillrie, Orfeverie) in Paris. Relocating to Los Angeles in 2004 with her husband and daughters, she joined the atelier of Ralph Goldstein at UCLA and studied Gemology at GIA. Her works have long been available at SALT in Venice, and she creates pieces to order. At her studio in the Santa Monica mountains, metal and stone are shaped through the artist’s refined skills into pieces remarkable for their understated elegance, articulated directly through the honest engagement of material, form and color. Nothing less, nothing more.

Godeleine de Rosamel
"I like that my work lets me play, first at being the original creator of imaginary life forms, and then at enacting the evolutionary process by which they struggle to adapt and perfect themselves. After spending so much time watching how my animals were growing and evolving, I realized that it was time to give them their own biotope of plants and trees, that hopefully will develop and mature in relationship with them. Creating the plants proves as complicated as creating the animals. Of course, all life forms are quite sophisticated, and there is no reason for the vegetal kingdom to be any easier to imagine and create than the animal one. This new development in my work follows my interest in natural history, evolution, and the wonders of nature in general."

María Ossandón Recart
Until now, two moments can be distinguished in María Ossandón's work. At first, María has worked on representations of landscapes or miniature scenes inside different containers. Miniature landscapes that have a high level of artificiality and that are not so far from what we know about nature, especially urban nature, a framed, friendly, artificial and ordered nature that survives in different forms.
In a second moment, the most recent and the one that has been carried out for the longest time, he has been collecting and reconstructing earthenware from different countries. Through ink drawing, María Ossandón reworks the miniature scenes or landscapes found in each broken piece of ceramics, relating universal memories with personal experiences, thus creating an almost archival representation of these landscapes.
There is here an exercise in memory and resistance, which dialogues both with what dies and with what can have “another life”, without degrading the previous one. Thus, these broken dishes are given another chance at life or dream, assuming the fragility that overwhelms any dream, always ready to evaporate or break.
