Yui Tima is the name, which Arhuaco people (aborigines from colombia) give to the moon and the sun.
The moon is related to the silver and the sun to the gold, precious metals I work with.
Yui Tima also represents the masculine and feminine, the passive and active energies, the "being", and what is done to make this "being" exist. All of this comes a long when I'm creating and making a piece of jewelry.
who I am
The jewelry is the language I use to express myself, to communicate my own view of the world.
My desire is for people to find themselves in this art, that this becomes in an expression of them as well, in something symbolic and meaningful. An aesthetic pleasure, which beautifies, communicates and passes on a feeling.
I was born in Colombia in 1988, but I've been living in Chile since 1993. I studied jewelry in Chile in the "Taller Formas del Magma" and after that in The Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts in San Francisco, CA
