What drives you to create?

When I create, I enter another reality — just me and my need to make something. It makes me feel good. At one point, I said “That’s it!” — it was all too much: family, home, lunch, dinner… it was draining me! But something was missing. I held out for a few months… then I threw myself back into what I love most: creating. I take scraps that others throw away and turn them into eco-jewellery that really makes a difference. And that’s everything to me. ❤️

What inspires you?

My spark just… appears. There’s no reason why. I look at the material, and my hands do the rest. I even tried sketching things first — didn’t work at all!

How do you bring your works to life?

I visit factories to ask for leather scraps, or pop next door to my neighbour who repairs bikes. After a good clean, I sort everything by colour — and then the magic happens. Scissors, pliers, glue, awl, edge-paint, hammer… these are my tools.
