Ana Pina was born in 1980, in Porto, Portugal, city where she studied, still lives and works. She graduates in architecture (FAUP, 2004) and works in an office for a few years, until she founds her passion for contemporary jewelry.
Jeweler and gallerist, she divides her work between the personal brand, launched in 2012, and Tincal lab, that is since 2015 an active contemporary jewelry workshop and exhibition space, featuring curated workshops with invited jewelers, individual and collective exhibitions, by local and international artists.
In her work Ana Pina combines the background in architecture with traditional jewelry techniques and contemporary concepts of design in the creation of jewels with a strong abstract and geometric inspiration. Unique pieces or limited collections combine elements of a common vocabulary in a game of contrasts and textures, geometric relations and asymmetries, as if they were letters building words inserted in a bigger text.
