Art in everyday life

manifest

The duality present in the process of creation and elaboration of each design of Mayté·Domecq ,combines technical skills and specialised knowledge, with manual, handcrafted and meticulous work, added to an important artistic vision, to be an element of expression in a person who does not want to be seen as the same as the rest. The duality of the superficial, the appearance and the codes of dress, with the ideals proposed in the pieces of a Mayté·Domecq , based on concern for the effects of industrialisation, the Arts and Craft movement, sustainability and care for the environment, in the use of recycled materials in the making of contemporary jewellery. A jewel of Mayté·Domecq, is art, brightness, shapes, geometry, craftsmanship and trades, it is the value of objects, the reuse of materials, care for the environment, innovation and constant change. This object takes value and expresses itself through its minimalist, geometric shapes and the simplicity of its design. Here is the dualism, at first sight a Mayté·Domecq, It looks like a piece with a lot of weight, however it is an extremely light and soft element, in terms of weight it seems not to be present, as if it were not carrying anything, in terms of attention it takes all of it.

WHAT I AM

WHAT I love

Reinforcing people’s individuality by creating objects of art and value.

Mayte Ossorio Domecq presentacion del manifiesto

MAYTÉ·DOMECQ

I am a mother, industrial designer and lover of objects. And speaking of objects… my deepest inspiration is the Arts and Crafts movement, born out of ideals, concern for the effects of industrialisation on design, knowledge and everyday life. A movement that advocated a revival of traditional craftsmanship, a return to a simpler way of life and an improvement in the design of everyday domestic objects. So I embraced its values, craftsmanship, respect for people, sustainability and care for the environment. I have always been attracted to reuse, recycling and the idea of transformation, in every sense. To exalt design, history and to pay homage to my mother, my grandmother and the history that we reconstruct from the memory of our roots.
