ALCHEMY

In "Alchemy," Paola Vilas envisions what women alchemists of the future might look like. In this collection, Paola merges feminine ancestral roots with a futuristic vision, where transformation through a broader understanding of the Universe takes new forms in her wearable sculptures.

Transcending the notion of time and space, the "Alchemy" collection visualizes a future where women create and transform themselves through their relationship with the Universe, ultimately becoming the cosmos itself. Paola brings this vision to the contemporary woman—one who constantly performs internal alchemies for her own transformation.

Just as women transform, hands shape a raw rock into a living form. Using an ancient technique, blue jade breasts come to life in eternal sculptures adorned with gold and diamonds. Iris of eyes manifest on the reverse side of each sculpture, turning each piece into an amulet.

A delicate perfume vial in rose quartz is an object to be carried close to the heart, like an alchemical potion, symbolizing the feminine capacity for creation and self-transformation.
