Statement
Maria Rosa Franzin avails herself of ancient techniques and materials, typical of the Italian tradition. Her close relationship with the art world has influenced her works immensely. She has, since the very beginning, adopted a pictorial approach in her jewellery. The pieces reveal an almost sketch-like appearance, that can be perceived in the pure gold strokes on oxidised silver surfaces, as if they had been made with a paintbrush. The boundaries of her pieces are often re-defined by wire elements extending beyond the edge. These latest years have seen the introduction in her work of colour by means of coral or synthetic elements protruding from slits on the surface of the piece, as if the element itself had grown and pushed its way out from beneath, creating a three-dimensional effect and giving depth to her jewellery.
