Jose Marin is a talented self-taught metalsmith; he chooses to work in titanium, the element discovered in Cornwall, England and named after the Titans of Greek mythology. He incorporates precious and semi-precious stones set in an element that is extremely difficult to work with. Marin is intrigued with the fact that titanium is found in almost all living things: water, soils and rocks.
Marin achieves a beautiful, glowing spectrum of colors by anodizing titanium.
Statement
When I choose a material, it is always with the idea of transforming it into a magical object. At this time I have opted for Titanium, a unique metal. Its hardness and toughness brings the challenge of making jewels by hand. Inspired by botanicals, and combining Titanium with gold, silver and semi-precious stones, I enjoy exploring new directions for contemporary jewelry with all the colors that nature provides.
Statement: Colors of the Jungle
This series portrays an imaginary journey through the exotic jungles of the world. Capturing magical moments, discovering the beauty of iridescent colors in nature, shining through the dark interior of the lush jungle.
I achieve these lustrous colors by using the chromatic range of anodized titanium often embellishing surfaces with semi-transparent lacquers applied to highly polished silver.
