Artist Shirley Blanch atMydaybyday Gallery in Rome
"I am Shirley Blanch, a Chilean jeweler. From my workshop, nestled between the mountains and the sea in the southernmost part of the world, I create unique jewelry pieces that reflect my essence and my connection to modern women while honoring our roots and origins.
My creative process encompasses every stage: from alloying and casting noble metals like silver and gold to the final transformation that brings each unique piece to life. I work with passion, dedication, and a constant drive for innovation, blending traditional techniques such as classic silversmithing, micromosaic, and filigree, enriched by natural stones that add singular beauty to each creation.
After much exploration, I found my true passion in jewelry-making—a way to connect with my inner self and pour my emotions and experiences into every piece. Each creation carries a piece of my soul and pays homage to the stories of the women who inspire me.
My jewelry is more than adornment; it is an artistic expression that combines fire, effort, and love, merging the contemporary with the ancestral to create works that resonate with the strength of femininity."
