OBJEWELRY is a series of wall art pieces by Kira Yurina, a Japanese artist and jewelry designer.
She creates three-dimensional works and brooch accessories by combining artfully colored natural wood with contrasting materials such as mirrors and acrylic. She explains that her works are neither within the framework of art objects nor jewelry. According to her, they exist in the realm between art objects and jewelry, which she calls OBJEWELRY.

Kira Yurina moved to Italy in 1991 and graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan with a degree in painting. During her time residing in Italy, she became deeply influenced by the architectural marvels of Italy and the natural wonders of the Swiss mountains. Subsequently, she embarked on creating wall-mounted artworks centered around the multifaceted beauty of nature, using wood as her primary medium. Upon returning to Japan, she expanded her creative repertoire to include wall-based compositions featuring geometric forms constructed from wood and mirrors, as well as crafting jewelry items in wood and acrylic, including brooches under the label OBJEWELRY.

Regarding OBJEWELRY, she describes it as a “composition of form, color, and volume.” Her work showcases a unique spatial arrangement of geometric shapes, which harmoniously balances a rich sense of volume and a captivating interplay of colors. Simultaneously, her artificial geometric structures evoke organic landscapes, creating a vivid interplay between the man-made and natural world.

We are delighted to announce an exhibition featuring 30 wall-mounted OBJEWELRY pieces by Kira Yurina at the Time & Style Milan showroom. On 16th of November, there will be a cocktail reception, and the artist herself will be in attendance. We eagerly await your presence at the exhibition, anticipating the enjoyment of this artistic journey.
