Travelling means learning, changing and growing. It does not mean invading or spoiling. The project Unspoiled reflects on both realities and invites the wearer to show them depending on the way they choose to wear the pieces that have, like many other things, two faces. One of the faces shows a series of stones typically used in the place of the world that gives name to each piece, while on the other side those beads are hidden by a photograph that reminds us of money. And given that travelling means improving, not consuming, which kind of travel do we choose?
