Sara Mas
Inicié mi camino en joyería en 2015 junto a un orfebre en Artà (Mallorca). En 2016, descubrí la joyería contemporánea en el Melting Point València, una bienal en mi ciudad natal que me motivó a estudiar joyería en la EASD Valencia.
En 2018-2019, realicé un intercambio en la Estonian Academy of Arts (EKA), en Tallinn, donde investigué materiales y formas para mi proyecto final, Sucesiones personales. En 2019, fui finalista de los premios Enjoia’t y gané el premio Artesanía Comunidad Valenciana en Nuevos Talentos. Mi proyecto final, basado en joyas de herencia, explora mi relación con mi abuela y la importancia de Valencia.
Tras concluir mis estudios en Valencia, me mudé a Barcelona. Allí aprendí diseño y modelado 3D con Alex Xantí, iniciación al esmalte al fuego con Josep Ronsano, y márquetin para redes sociales en el JORG (Colegio Oficial de Joyeros, Orfebres, Relojeros y Gemólogos de Cataluña).
En 2022, regresé a Valencia para cursar el Grado en Diseño de Producto con especialidad en Joyería y Objeto en la EASD Valencia. En 2023-2024, gané dos premios en La Botiga, incluyendo el premio Avajoya, que me permitió asistir a Madrid Joya y exponer mi trabajo, adquiriendo experiencia en el sector.
He participado en exposiciones colectivas nacionales e internacionales y asistido a talleres con destacados joyeros como Iris Eichenberg, Jorge Manilla y Peter Bauhuis. Actualmente, sigo estudiando en la EASD Valencia, explorando nuevas ideas y técnicas en joyería.
