A set of two lapis lazuli and white marbel rings, by Alicia Moi-Orban.
Alicia Moï Orban, née Monique Orban, is a French sculptor whose practice has explored the boundaries between art, form and material. Over the course of her career, her reflections on sculpture have led her to conceive what she calls her "monumental micro-sculptures": works conceived both as objects and as spaces, in which volumes unfold in both very small and monumental dimensions. These micro-sculptures include jewelry-sculptures, singular objects where formal rigor meets powerful expressivity.
Alicia Moï Orban's jewels reflect this approach: they are not simple ornaments, but veritable small sculptural spaces, where form, void and fullness converse with balance. They reflect her abiding interest in the essence of form, and in the possibility of creating pieces that work on both micro and large scales.
Alicia Moï Orban, born Monique Orban, was a French sculptor whose work explored the boundaries between art, form, and material. Over the course of her career, her reflection on sculpture led her to develop what she called her "micro-monumental sculptures": works conceived both as objects and as spaces, where volumes unfold on a scale ranging from very small to monumental. These micro-sculptures include jewelry-sculptures unique pieces where formal precision meets powerful expressiveness.
Alicia Moï Orban's jewelry reflects this approach: they are not mere ornaments, but miniature sculpted spaces in which form, void, and solid interact in perfect balance. They demonstrate her enduring interest in the essence of form and the possibility of creating pieces that work equally well at micro and monumental scales.
