Story Behind the art:
Zayd Makarim was born in West Java on August 2, 1968. From the time he was a child, he liked art. I did paintings and sculptures for fun, he recalls. It started as an assignment for school but, by doing them, I discovered I liked art so much that it became one of my passions.
As an adult, Makarim's job took him to Bali. I'd always had a dream to come to Bali, and also to travel, he says. And my dream came true. In Bali he worked for a famous jewelry designer and that's where he learned about silver and design, and began making his own jewelry.
It all started because of my wife's birthday. I wanted to create a gift for her, so I made a pair of earrings. When they were done, I could not believe my eyes because they were so beautiful... and she loved them! he confides. Many of her friends asked if I could make some for them. I started thinking about taking my passion seriously and I decided to create my own jewelry line.
I like art and find inspiration in everything that surrounds me. I love architecture and I am eager to know and learn more about other nations' culture. In my pieces, I want to express myself as well as what surrounds me.
My wife helps me a lot. Thanks to her I get really inspired because when I think of something beautiful, I think about her and what would be good for her. She means everything to me.
