The sentinels Ramón, Vilma and Carmen personify one of the most transcendent instinctive acts that living beings have the pleasure of experiencing: caring and being cared for.
In caring, one weaves an intimate relationship with the other that transcends one's own needs. This relationship is nurtured over time and is an act of mutual responsibility. It is not possible to care without listening to the needs of the other, it requires empathy and recognition.
Our collection is an ode to the act of caring and we do it through these ornamented characters. For this, we use artisanal processes such as carved wood and hand turned metal parts, respecting the nature of the materials. The result are pieces with many details that convey warmth.
Given that care has been for years an activity attributed only to women, we seek to transcend the gender barrier by proposing an alternative to the paradigm under which we operate. These pieces arise from a series of reections on violence and seek to raise awareness of the way in which we relate to each other and to our surroundings.
In natural materials such as wood, leather and stone tend to have variations in tone and wood grain such variations are not the responsibility of the Comité de Proyectos.
