CAROL ROZ | SAO PAULO, BRAZIL
Carol Roz is a Brazilian artist based in São Paulo, who loves experimentations with textiles and beads. Her work as a costume designer and love for colors shaped her approach to a more dreamy and playful view of wearable jewelry art. Every piece is hand-beaded by Carol, playing with textures and vibrant colors.
Taught to embroider by her grandma, this collection comes from a place of reminiscence, but also from a desire to create a new and colorful universe. The immediate inspiration for this series is the world of anemones and coral reefs, however, it is not simply a homage to these magnificent sea creatures, but also her grandma and youth. During childhood, she spent most of her holidays in her grandma's house by a beach close to a conservation area called "Costa dos Corais" ("Coast of the Coral Reefs"), northwest of Brazil.
This collection is about her days playing by the ocean, experimenting and creating since her a young age - with her grandma always encouraging her to craft playful pieces of art to display to the rest of the family.
