Eva Duran: "Bonita". By K.K.W

Somewhere in Barcelona Spain, Eva Duran is creating something beautiful, even if its just a simple meal, a drink, or a work of art that we may not fully understand, but will love just the same.

Unique, hand-crafted designs that bring together the strange , singular beauty of nature, with the individual creativity of an amazing woman from Barcelona. Colored stones held together by gently twisted wire fixed to a large beautiful sea-shell, evoking the elegance of some lost culture, that may have existed, or in her mind, if only for a moment time. 

Vine-like wire and the smooth thin limbs of odd trees, pieced  together by gifted hands, along with what looks like dried leaves or hand-made paper and sometimes feathers. You can see the clever creativity of Alexander Calder and Nani Marquina in her great works. Her lamp designs are the joining of nature and a women's touch, resulting in an example of modern life's need for a return to where it all began.

The light from her lamps are symbols of the power of human ingenuity and creativity in the darkness that sometimes is our would. A brief, wonderful look at the greatness of production using some of the gifts of nature without the harshness of industrial production. They are a rugged, delicate, spiritual design that leaves you wondering who their maker is, and what she's doing at the very moment you see them, and can't help but wish to possess each one. 


Eva Duran's designs are like the opposite of Louis C Tiffany's amazing creations. They represent the do it yourself feel of old, when hand crafted beauty was prized above all else because no two would ever be the same. Like women filled with knowledge- similar, yet no two are alike. Eva is also an amazing photographer with a varied style to her work. She's a dedicated animal lover and one of the most stylish and interesting women in Barcelona, Spain, with talent to spare.
