INCIPIT
The continuous exploration of occult themes led me to search for objects and artifacts that gave me an identity in relation to the left hand path, however, all I found within my reach were empty objects with which I did not perceive a connection. This is how the need to have something authentic led me to develop my first works of anti-cosmic jewelry, which led to an unstoppable thirst for creation and expansion of the devil’s work.
Each piece is characterized by being made by hand, paying special attention to detail to create small and unique sculptural jewels of authentic anti-cosmic art.
THE PROCESS
The creative process is inspired by occult texts, artworks, meditations, music, among other stimulants that generate a mental image, a concept that is rarly captured on paper, I generally formulate a 3D mental model, a ”skill” that I learned during my training as architect/designer, so this concept goes directly to being modeled in wax to give life to a work of satanic jewelry after a complex production process in the workshop.
FOR THE DAMNED, BEARERS OF THE BLACK FLAME
Despite being a material object, jewelry is still energy. A jewel is a tool, it is a “chalice” to receive and channel energy, positive or negative. Silver and gold by themselves have an energetic charge, and turning the metal into a symbol, its power of creation or destruction becomes unstoppable. So that is the objective with my creations, to provide the magician with tools to work with the energies of the left hand path and to deliver high quality craftsmanship to those who seek to connect with original anti-cosmic jewelry.
Viasiniestra can be translated as the sinister path, path to the left, or left hand path.
is the path we have chosen, a path of no return and of atavistic traditions that are still in force.
