About Olga
Olga Noronha, a 21 years old, London based portuguese jewellery designer, has been relentlessly examining the relationship between bodies, attitudes and surroundings, both in the wearer’s and the audience’s points of view. Olga’s creations are never mere ornaments, but are art pieces that celebrate the marriage of sturdy mechanics and delicate anatomies. Constantly challenging and exploring the relationship of interactivity, Olga illustrates the connection between ‘to see’ and ‘to be seen’. Wishing people not to be apathetic towards her work, whatever the reaction – good or bad, Olga welcomes doubts for they may lead to surprise.

I discovered this warehouse / shop few months ago, but I was very annoyed at myself for the fact that I so often passed by and never noticed it. It is an endless world of leathers and accessories and tools for its work, along with a magnificent Art Nouveau façade that invites everyone to come and enjoy the amiability of the owners.

A 17th century former Augustinian monastery is laid on the highest point of Vila Nova de Gaia. From the front of the church there are wonderful views over the river and of both Porto and Gaia. It is the place where I go when I want to feel that "I see everything and nobody sees me."
