Edna Isabel Jewelry -joyería de autorAbout Edna Isabel Acosta With a multidisciplinary approach (graphic, communication and museology) Edna Isabel Acosta has developed her design career in Puerto Rico. Being surrounded by two cultures (a Venezuelan mother and a Puerto Rican father), travel, study and live among the Caribbean, United States and Europe have influenced her creative vision. Her jewels are body ornaments, delicately handcrafted, that incorporates stylized lines, color and textures with a particularly Caribbean character.

Her design studio and contemporary jewellery lab is located in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where she conceptualized and produced her jewellery.

Process and evolution of your work Archipiélago is inspired by organic and mineral forms from the Caribbean landscape by which I’ve been surrounded. I integrate the element of color to the metal by the application of a fine polyester mesh of my own creation. This mesh is the result of months of experiments with polyester fibers. Manipulating this mesh I make it resemble natural and organic. In 2010, Archipiélago received Best Award in the Iberoamerican Design Bienal of Madrid (BID10).

Energy Centers is a collection full of energy and vitality in which mixed media is the starting point to demonstrate the 7 main energy centers in the human body known as “chakras”. It is my artistic vision of how energy travels from the physical body to the abstract/ethereal body. Studying and practicing Reiki have inspired me to develop this subject and incorporate it into my jewelry design. This collection is feature as a solo virtual exhibition: http://beautifulpeopleliveart.com/ the-essence-of-experience-edna-isabel-acosta/
