The Torn collection is truly a labour of love for the internationally renowned jewellery artist
Seth Papac. Unbeknownst to jewellery novices, the
signature collection is skilfully shaped with at least ten touches, including
the creation of a sterling silver ingot, compression, tearing, shaping,
soldering, texturing, polishing, sanding, hardening, treating, oxidising and so
much more going into the painstaking process of turning ordinary block of metal into a
piece of powerful wearable art.
The
core philosophy of Seth Papac Jewellery is seeking beauty from unconventional
objects, against the perceived ideal of common jewellery aesthetics and
concept. The Torn collection is visually striking for its uniqueness and
individuality; the roughened, deliberately carefree jagged edges provide each piece a personality and
story of its own. The jewellery is not aimed solely towards savvy, trendsetting
and artistic jewellery types, it is suitable for those who dares to explores the
realms of the experimental and the unknown.
My
favourite piece from the Torn collection is most definitely the Phoenix
hoops, which conveys a certain vibe of 'I am at the
center of attention and there is nothing you can do about it' stance. It has a transformative appeal, capable of turning ordinary individuals
into an audacious, confident and edgy power player.
The
message is clear; go bold or get out.
