The hot Lisbon afternoon began with the parade of jewelry designer Valentine Quaresma. Based on microscopic pictorial patterns, the collection was titled "Virus", investing in silver as a trend.
Valentim Quaresma is a jewellery designer based in Lisbon. After 20 years of collaborating with an avant-garde fashion designer Ana Salazar, he started his own line in 2005. His futuristic and innovative style quickly brought him a lot of popularity and recognition.
Valentim's creative process concentrates on the specific function of the objects he works with, which, once transformed, are given a new functionality and meaning. His conceptual art has been exhibited in many cities including Lisbon, Porto, and Barcelona, as well as in international galleries and art biennales.
