An "Inclusion I" silver, steel and rock crystal brooch, by Ana Escobar Saavedra Ana Escobar Saavedra is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice straddles the border between art and craft. Born in Colombia, she lived and worked for sixteen years in Italy and France before settling in the United Arab Emirates in 2020. Through object, jewelry, sculpture and installation, she explores the emotional and material relationships between people and objects, addressing themes such as identity, migration, memory and the rituals of life and death. Her work has been shown internationally, including at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, 421 Arts Campus in Abu Dhabi, Sharjah Art Museum, Looiersgracht 60 Art Center in Amsterdam, C-mine in Genk, Museo de Arte Popular José Hernandez in Buenos Aires, Institut Français in Barcelona and MUDE in Lisbon.

This phenomenon, which has existed since the beginning of humanity, has somehow become massive and inevitable, a social and political problem that challenges our minds on a daily basis. A cause and a consequence. The "caminantes" (walkers) necklace is inspired by those who have left their birthplace in search of a different life. For the "Inclusion" brooch series, as the title suggests, I was interested in the different definitions of the word inclusion on themes such as mineralogy, sociology and mathematics. The choice of form, inspired by Venn diagrams, explores the ideas of intersection, union and containment used in elementary set theory. By superimposing the printed stones (rock crystal) an intersecting space forms in the middle and the characters overlap, I find the same thing happens in society where different groups of people share space but don't necessarily mix.
