Ritratto di Ludovica Forcina

Su di me

Sono una artista italiana di gioielli e piccoli oggetti unici con base a Berlino.

Mi sono laureata a Roma in Product Design, e dopo diversi anni di lavoro come designer di arredi e grafica, ho deciso di dedicarmi alla mia pratica artistica personale.
Creo gioielli e piccoli oggetti unici con l’intento di infondere emozioni in chi li guarda.

Sono cresciuta in costiera amalfitana, a stretto contatto con il mare e la vegetazione, che sono un’essenziale e costante fonte di ispirazione per il mio lavoro. Il mio lavoro creativo è incentrato sul rispetto e la celebrazione della natura nel suo intero di ciclo di crescita, fioritura e decadenza.

Credo nella bellezza delle cose realizzate con cura e passione, perciò realizzo i miei pezzi interamente a mano, con un processo di realizzazione lento e attento ad ogni piccolo dettaglio.
I miei pezzi sono realizzati interamente a mano e principalmente su richiesta, in modo da evitare la sovrapproduzione, i conseguenti sprechi e aumentare la consapevolezza del valore di ciò che si sta acquistando.

La tecnica

I miei pezzi sono interamente realizzati a mano con amore e dedizione.
Lavoro principalmente con la tecnica della cera persa (“cire perdue”), un’antica tecnica utilizzata in arte e nella manifattura che mi permette di creare forme scultoree con dettagli intricati.

Oltre ad avere un nome poetico “cire perdue”, questa tecinca ha un processo molto interessante e poetico:

Durante il processo di fusione, la cera, esposta al calore, fonde e si disperde per lasciare il suo spazio vitale al metallo, in altre parole si sacrifica per amore del metallo. Ogni modello in cera ha un solo ed unico corrispettivo in metallo.

Una volta che il vigoroso metallo prende il posto della delicata cera, il pezzo è pronto per essere pulito e rifinito in modo da risplendere dell’amore concessogli e onorare il sacrificio della cera.

Materiali

La tecnica della cera persa mi permette di lavorare con diversi metalli. Io lavoro principalmente con il bronzo, una lega che amo molto per colore e caratteristiche. È un materiale ‘vivo’ con una naturale evoluzione, cambia colore con il passare del tempo e a contatto con il corpo. È un materiale che ha bisogno di cura e attenzione per mantenere il suo splendore.

Approccio

Il packaging è interamente realizzato in carta e in studio, ove possibile, vengono utilizzati materiali riciclati e biodegradabili

Con l’obiettivo di ridurre al minimo gli sprechi nella produzione,  la maggior parte dei pezzi è  realizzata su ordinazione.

  • Another beautiful engagement ring in 14ct yellow gold with a deep green tourmaline. 
The texture is inspired by volcanic rock 🤍
  • Just finished this dreamy engagement ring in white gold, featuring a green diamond at the centre and a delicate white diamond by its side. I’m a little in love with how it turned out 🤍
  • A very special wedding-ring project 🤍
We began with a 3D model created from the material translation of a song. From there, I reworked the 3D printed wax by hand, shaping them until it found its balance.
What I love most is the interplay between the smooth, ring surface and the richly textured part.
  • If you’re thinking of gifting one of my creations this Christmas, please remember that each piece is made to order, and handmade things take time 🤍
  • Antennae Hoops in gold plated silver 🤍
  • “Erosions,” the latest focus of my work, explores the forms of stones gradually reshaped by natural forces such as waves, rain, and wind.
