• Maria Gabrieleva, Ontario College of Art and Design University
Maria Gabrieleva is a Toronto-based artist and jewellery designer, who holds a bachelor of design from OCAD. In her current creative project, constructivism movement is a source of inspiration. Maria’s vision is to have the beauty of each piece realized in the interactions between shape, colour, and texture.
This jewellery line is intended to create a symbolic connection between the past and present. The combination of different materials like wood, metal, and plastic represents the different stages of technological evolution.
Maria elevates wood as a material, proving it is versatile, and reveals its valuable qualities for use in modern jewellery design. The collection focuses on high-quality finishes and a minimalist approach. The pieces are meant to be worn effortlessly within any contemporary urban setting. This artistic collection is produced to complement contemporary French fashionistas based on visionary freedom and classic tradition.
