Ovide III

This necklace preserves the memory of an ancient imagination in which love takes every form: that of Ovid’s Metamorphoses.

In the great poem of the ancient world, gods, men and women are constantly changing appearance. Human bodies, animal forms, hybrid figures: metamorphosis becomes the very language of desire, passion and disturbance. In Ovid, forms shift, identities elude definition, boundaries dissolve.

Love, seduction, lust, terror and divine punishment set in motion a series of transformations in which the contradictory powers of love are revealed. Love appears in turn as impulse, conquest, vertigo, possession or surrender.

More than a mythological narrative, Ovid’s work opens a territory of freedom. It explores passion, desire and identity in all their complexity, making metamorphosis an initiation into the art of loving — and into the infinite plurality of love’s forms.

What once belonged to myth, desire and transformation now meets the skin.
Ovid III is a Love Jewel.
