Art Project: Jewellery Meets Architecture this Christmas

Veronica Morales Angulo is a professional jewellery and architecture photographer who works equally well with both large and small subjects. Rather than having a preference for one or the other, she successfully unites the two, tying them together with a common thread.

At the onset of the Christmas holidays, Veronica and I have decided, once again, to carry out some jewellery experiments, increasing their size hundreds of thousands of times, and have launched the third instalment of our “Jewels in Quarantine” project. The first section was based on the idea that all the pieces were locked inside buildings, like their owners. The second was inspired by the joy of open doors and walks. This third series of photographs evoke the winter season, filling you with the warm emotions associated with the most magical and fabulous holiday of the year.

Dare to dream and make the most incredible wishes you can think of. They will definitely come true!
