Yoko Takirai's jewellery conveys expressions of new concepts of space. A multiplicity of paths animate her designs and for this reason they often conceal something unexpected. The necklaces, the rings and the earrings, both in the three dimensional and in the linear forms, express an emotion or movement which only reveals itself when they are worn. Sometimes enigmatic in their shape, her jewellery unveils itself when it becomes one with the body, revealing a lightness, an elegance and a strong feminine sinuosity. And all this is felt in spite of the geometric lines used in some of her collections. Her research manages to achieve forms which are pure and to unite elegance and comfort. Delicately elaborated objects are achieved thanks to a devotion to workshop research, which can be accomplished only by one who has mastered the technical skills able to transfer an emotion filtered by movements and whose simple and clean forms are preserved. Delicately worked, these jewels , in a serene attempt - triumphant - acquire a state of purity, enhanced in quality.
