Our artist Ana Margarida Carvalho wins the prestigious Arte Y Joya award in Barcelona
The winner of the Arte y Joya International Award 2020-2021 is Ana Margarida Carvalho (Portugal) with the piece Paradisum #69. (pictured left)
About In Paradisum: “Having Baroque Music as a starting point, each piece is the result of repeating and combining the same type of aluminium, copper or titanium element. These folded units are organised, like in origami, to create organic forms in which the geometry of the compositions is hidden when the metal is forged.
The organic aspect of the pieces is also reinforced by the marks left by the hammer, by the mobility of the non-welded elements that compose them and finally by the Kliar coating or anodised colour of each piece.”
About the Jury:
An independent jury formed by five specialised international experts, and with the aim to make this decision as plural as possible, has selected Ana Maria Carvalho as the winner of the year. They have been also joined by a popular vote.
