Pierre Charpin—an internationally renowned French designer and visual artist—has been exploring the world of jewelry since 2018 in collaboration with MiniMasterpiece.
For the Kulubá collection (named after a Mayan archaeological site discovered in 1939, whose aerial view, with its countless intersecting alleys, evokes the design of his jewels), Pierre Charpin has retained the design of a freehand line, a way of accentuating the tactile dimension of the object one is about to grasp—a necklace, brooch, or earring.
From the irregular grid emerges a series of small spaces, of varying sizes, left empty or filled with color. In the areas filled with bright or darker colors, Charpin creates a poetic rhythm, a free composition where the eye explores the labyrinth. In the empty spaces, conversely, Charpin invites us to freely complete the sequence: the surface of fabric or skin will complete the composition.
