SYMBIOSIS with Cecilia
SYMBIOSIS with Cecilia
It is a project of mutual transformation. A limited series of jewels created by Teresa Estapé and inspired by unique individuals who have transferred part of their personality to the pieces we present.
Symbiosis is made up of a series of jewels that have the special characteristics of the individuals who inspired them.
Cecilia Azcárate is a creative director at Spotify NY. It is an all-rounder with extraordinary sensitivity. For years, she had combined the pearl necklace, a memory of her mother, with Nike technical clothing and polarized biker glasses. Two days before we were to see each other in New York, his mother's necklace broke. "It's a sign" she told me when she saw the jewel that she inspired me. Seven pure gold nuggets suspended on a fine gold chain (almost like a prehistoric amulet, like tooth necklaces). The “Cecilia” necklace on her black technical T-shirt, wet from the rain and reflected in the polarized lenses, became resounding, more expressive and contemporary.
Cecilia crosses the bridge that connects Brooklyn with Manhattan every day “rain, snow or shine”. We photographed her on a rainy day in a cafeteria in Little Italy where she has breakfast every day, there we talked about the symbolic value of the jewel and its strength as a protective element.
