Clizia Moradei

Italian multidisciplinary designer and researcher in sustainable fashion at the Università Iuav di Venezia, with a Master Degree in Visual Arts & Fashion and a Bachelor’s in Industrial & Graphic Design. Various experiences within art, interior and fashion design, communication and events management, allowed me to develop an all-round creative hyperactivity. In 2017 my passion for contemporary jewelry gave shape to the project Clizia Jewelry. This is my territory for experimentation where to mix innovative materials with traditional florentine goldsmith techniques, translating sculpture’s practices and materiality into unique, abstract yet exuberant wearable pieces. My vision is for jewelry as a powerful mean of expression, which pushes its boundaries beyond trends and models in a trip across diverse sensory imaginaries.
