OJALÁ (hopefully)
… a jewel will surprise you, wake you up, connect you, transform you.
We think of a permeable jewellery that is artwork and bond between people; a signifier that connects and unites us.
In 2014 we organized an exhibition in a café, which made possible meeting and talking to the visitors everyday in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.
The Cafe can hold a particular and unique moment with someone, and preserve the importance to chat, work, study, plan and enjoy. Sharing can enrich us, if we are open to chance.
Ojalà (hopefully) is an Arab interjection difficult to translate. It expresses a strong desire for something to happen; a longing, not guaranteed to be fulfilled.
With the 'Ojalá' Project we want to continue the cafe conversation, crossing boundaries and creating new bonds.
At Café Clara, the argentine artists will share their work. And during the vernissage they will initiate 'Ojalá Itinerant' - a travelling project of collective creative jewellery, in which different participants will transform it and later will hand over it to another.
If meeting transforms and binds us, beyond time and space. How would it be a jewel that symbolizes this bond?
OJALA you join us!
In the 'Ojalá' exhibition each artist work with a particular concept and connects jewellery with other disciplines: paper, textile and porcelain objects.
Alejandra Koreck´s work explores the limits of words and writing, the limits of representation. It is an attempt to wander along the border between sense and nonsense, between the possible and the impossible, surrounding the void.

Sabina Tiemroth continues researching with the idea of the line as the main element of construction. The same line, using the remnants of fabric salvaged threads, that folds upon itself as roads, forming reliefs and volume, internal spaces and voids that lead to something new... to infinity”

For Patricia Gallucci dream is a sieve through which she perceives the world. She finds the delicacy in everything that surrounds her. Color leads her to the clear and silent light. The ephemeral in nature holds everything: life, death, the passage of time; it reveals its strength and sensitivity. In the artistic process she explores the joy of transforming materials through experimentation, leading to the unpredictable.
She explores the interaction between the jewel and its wearer. Through the fragile, ethereal and vulnerable, intimacy becomes immediate and conscious: in the way they are worn, contemplated, cared, felt unique and present.
