As an architect, it was not often that I got to apply my “visions” in designing and constructing new building projects... Fortunately, I became familiar with the techniques and materials of many construction professions which I combined in jewelry creating processes, to simply conclude that everything is possible...

Angelos Konstantakatos Interview (2020)

Jewelry for me is something that adorns the wearer from within. Adorns (her / him) not because the jewel is beautiful, but because the person who wears it feels beautiful!

Contemporary jewelry for me is the end product of a practice that ignores rules, images, types, materials and traditions.

I think that the jewelry must be as unique as the person who rejoices it !

Nature is an endless source of inspiration to me. I admire organic forms, textures, shadows, materials. I seek the choreography in nature... I borrow its elements and try to involve them in shapes and ideas which are escaping from my floating imagination.

The concept of transformation, change of use – function or identity plays an important role in my thinking and creative process. I am constantly experimenting and improving / modifying methodologies and techniques (original and conventional), creating jewelry beyond the obvious.

Thus, I think I am capturing a moment of evolution and merging it with thoughts and emotions creating essentially a material memory.
