For the joy of making small items
- • Mariana creates jewellery with passion for detail
- • Her studio Tiska Joyas has been in operation since 2016
- • In 2020 she won one of the National Craft Awards of Uruguay
Encouraged by her mother, Mariana Schwedt attended sculpture workshops in her youth, where she found a place to express herself through art. After graduating from Industrial Design, she realised that she wanted to focus on manual design. "The word 'industrial' was too loud to me and I felt that the personal imprint of the creator would get lost along the way," says Mariana. Instead, she trained as a jeweller, combining design and handmaking small pieces of portable art. "I have always loved anything that is about making small pieces and involves fine motor skills. I love the timeless value of these small objects, pieces that transcend generations, not only with material value but with a great emotional value,” says Mariana. “I feel that I generate magic, an object with a lot of symbolic and energetic charge, a small amulet, a talisman."
