Three independent hearts: Red Independent Heart, Black Independent Heart and Golden Independent Heart. Each heart is a huge "Heart of Viana", an iconic piece of Portuguese filigree, filled with plastic cutlery.
Inspired by the art of filigree, this emotional installation by Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos speaks of the illusory boundaries that separate luxury and vulgarity.
The International Tourism Forum was held in Madrid from January 22 to 26, 2025.
At the stand dedicated to Portuguese filigree from the city of Gondomar, it was possible to get acquainted with this traditional Portuguese jewelry art, see the master working live and buy certified filigree jewelry from Portugal.
