Desperate Heart – Nickel Silver Necklace
by FILOZA · Barcelona, Spain

FILOZA was born from an insatiable search for materials to play with, to shape, to transform. At its core is Valentina Gaddi, an Argentine artist based in Spain. From childhood, her hands have been a bridge between thought and creation—drawing, painting, sculpting—always seeking a tangible connection between the self and the object. When she discovered metal, it was an instant, undeniable love. The shine, the resistance, the fire needed to mold it—it all became an obsession, a dance. And so, this bond was forged. FILOZA is a is an exploration of the romance between darkness and light. The shapes created through the lost-wax technique have a deep connection with the organic and the beauty of imperfection. Inspired by transformed nature, each piece is a reflection of rebellion, challenging norms and embracing the unconventional. It represents an audience that seeks to express their individuality through pieces that carry meaning beyond their aesthetic value. Each jewell is unique, not only because of the creation process but also due to its ability to emotionally resonate with those who choose it. It is a declaration of individuality. As with any process of alchemy, one must transmute their own soul before transmuting metals. Purify within, become one with your amulet.
