Precious Lands by Imma Batalla

Brooch / Abstract OnBody

Brooch: Precious Lands by Imma Batalla.Clay, resin, vinyl, paint, steel and silver.. 2016.Ø 8. 5 cm.Photo by: Pep Ávila.I have tried to reflect on the beauty of clay with these brooches which I have called “Precious lands”. Antagonist of both gold and silver which are inherent in jewellery, clay resists beauty and beautification. Its aesthetic qualities have more to do with a mass in search of form. With its ability to suggest the idea of an origin, an idea which resonates to myths of clay as the primordial matter from which the world is mad to appear in the most primitive and simple gestures. From water and earth I have created a series of circular pieces. Each clay surface shows subtle textures and an irregular silhouette inspired by an informalism that contrasts with the minimalism brought to the piece by the metallic colors of the coat of acrylic paint.
