Carina Shoshtary
Carina Shoshtary, born in 1979 in Augsburg, Germany, is a contemporary jewellery and mask artist whose work explores the intersection between nature and artifice. Trained as a goldsmith and further educated at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich under Professor Otto Künzli, she crafts fluid, organic forms using bio-plastics and found or vintage materials. Nature serves as both muse and collaborator, inspiring designs that blur the boundaries between the natural and synthetic. Shoshtary’s work has been shown worldwide in numerous solo and group exhibitions. Her pieces are held in public collections including the International Design Museum, Munich, Germany; the V&A, London, England; and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, USA. Through her jewellery, she invites viewers to engage with the transformative potential of material and adornment.
