Statement

His most personal work is creative, neither confined nor complicated by techniques or materials. Starting from the basis of intuition and experimentation as a working method he creates conceptually daring and innovative pieces which are in turn essentially modern. Refined organic forms, spontaneous lines, an almost abstract line traced on flexible metal; hollows in which inner spaces are hidden; sulek-burcu-emptiness-2015/fullness; the intimacy of a miniature architecture; or of daring to include live beings such as lichens within the piece of jewellery. A reinvention of materials, used to make unexpected shapes.

Enric Majoral conceives the jewel as a form of expression and as a worldview. Experience, nature, his own roots and memories of places are the source of his work. Work and life are inseparable.
