“SELLING MY PIECES
IN THE BILBAO GUGGENHEIM
ALONGSIDE THE GREATEST ARTISTS IN HISTORY,
IS A REWARD FOR MY HARD WORK AND EFFORT
OVER MANY YEARS.”

txus Aretxabaleta

Color, magic, and alchemy, transmutation of materials
yesterday you were a door and today you display my joy,
yesterday you were a stamp and today beauty brilliance and a lighthouse of glances;
it is that sensitivity in finding the essence of each object that makes every one of her creations an event, a splendid creature who has found her truth, her soul, the meaning of her existence “MAMIA” in her native tongue of Euskal Herria.

TXUS ARETXABALETA

 

Artisan, jeweler, alchemist, treasure hunter, nomad, whose almost shamanic sensitivity to uncovering the soul of each object makes magical combinations possible. She brings back to life tiny discoveries between the organic and the forgotten, the story hidden by each object’s functional past, transforming them into new and innovative creations; shark’s teeth, San Diego, coins that no one listens to anymore, stone from Bangkok, Bali or the Philippines…; exquisite Pop miniatures found using her almost spiritual perception, from the street markets of Asia and traditional antique sellers of China where she has lived for the last 10 years.
