Inside of the studio.

Studio Squina located in the centre of Madrid, founded by Gimena Caram and Sandra Pampin on 20th April 2016, was born as a Jewellery School-Workshop and is the natural result of the passion and energy which are two feels about the design, creative processes and techniques. The Studio offers regular courses in jewellery design and techniques, short course and technical and conceptual workshops with guest professors. In the new space, exhibitions and events are organized to promote contemporary jewellery, art and design, with the aim of creating a meeting place between designers, artists and audiences.

Statement

Gimena and Sandra need to create a meeting place, to spark dialogues between contemporary jewellery, art and design. They need to expose and confront their workshop as a place of debate between artisans and audiences; to attract the curious to understand the techniques, the processes of experimentation and design, as well as offer a small window to show not only the pieces but also their trade; They also needed to create a meeting place with other jewellers and creators, to discuss, communicate and generate content that could be an opportunity to promote reflection and debate on design, art and crafts. These two designers, also jewellers with different formations and visions in the form and approach to the works, are delighted to share workshop and projects and want to attract more and more people who want to promote art, crafts and design in Madrid.

Events

2020:

Workshop 16 Mar 2020 - 20 Mar 2020 Cool People Wear Necklaces. Technical and conceptual workshop with Lavinia Rossetti.

Lecture 12 Feb 2020 - 12 Feb 2020 On the Skin by Ana Paula de Campos.
In this talk, we invite you to focus on the cultural context of the fields of design and of jewellery, since objects always reflect their time. Through a new perspective on contemporary jewellery, in its dialogue with the visual arts, we aim to enlarge the discussion on appearance versus essence. By drawing inspiration from Paul Valéry’s paradoxical statement concerning the depth of skin, we come to think of design as “the skin of culture” and jewellery as “culture on the skin”.

Exhibition 08 Feb 2020 - 05 Mar 2020 Identities.
It's part of the OFF Madrid Design Festival programming. There are 6 contemporary plastic artists + 6 contemporary jewellers involved in this exhibition. Six pairs of creators focus on the concept of identity from the special interest that arouses the relationship between creative processes and production technicians in the work of art: Carlos Aires, Paul Adie; Carlos Cartaxo, Estela Sáez, Sandra Val, Jorge Manilla, Ruth Quirce, Sandra Pampín; Ana H. del Amo, Gimena Caram, Pepe Carretero, Gabriela Cohn.

2019:

Exhibition 22 Nov 2019 - 10 Dec 2019 Pretext.
Collective of contemporary jewellery formed by Gimena Caram, Marta Herradura, Sandra Pampin and Katerin Taipe, whose starting point is a brief fragment extracted from a literary work. Each artist chooses a text as a source of inspiration and translates it, with their own style and technique, into a piece of jewellery, working individually but also in a group, discussing the different ways of expressing their purposes through materials and pooling their work processes and methods. In this way, even with very different stories, the pieces dialogue and the exhibition has a unique and homogeneous speech.
