Today we’d like to introduce you to Kimberly Padilla.
Hi Kimberly, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
My story is rooted in a strong influence from my family; they are how I got to where I am today. Their passion ignited my desire to create, and so my journey began at the age of three. I observed my mother painting and making jewelry. As well as my grandmother engaging in detailed creations like beading and sewing.
Seeing them create incredible works of art opened my eyes and mind to the endless possibilities of being able to bring to life whatever you think. As I grew older, my fascination with the Amazon and the beauty of nature deepened. It became the driving force behind my artistic expression. Inspired by the elaborate patterns of flowers, the grace of birds, and the wisdom of trees, I delved into the world of jewelry design.
I began infusing my jewelry with intention and healing energy, incorporating gemstones known for their metaphysical properties. Creating and cleansing them in the Ecuadorian Rainforest.
Can you talk to us about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back, would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
As an artist, I will always have to create, whatever the circumstances. No matter what ups and downs life throws at us, we as artists will find a way to have our creations come to life.
Create from the heart. Believe in yourself, and your visions, your thoughts, and your intentions will come to life.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Today, I am grateful to have transformed my passion. Through my creations, I aim to bring not only visually stunning pieces but also sources of positive energy and healing vibrations. Each jewelry design is unique and infused with intention, crafted in the Amazon Rainforest to promote balance, harmony, and well-being. I aspire to inspire others to embrace the energy around them.
I specialize in energy healing and creating jewelry in the Amazon Rainforest. My work revolves around empowering individuals through distinctive pieces. I am known for founding Washkagems, which serve as a powerful symbol for Indigenous Ecuadorian women. What sets me apart is my focus on energy healing and the deep connection I have with the Amazon Rainforests, infusing each creation with its essence. I take pride in helping others find empowerment and joy through my work, and I’m most proud of being able to live my dreams every day.
My creations hold transformative energy for the wearer. Learning to work with the subtle energies that flow through all living things I realized the profound impact that these energies can have on our well-being and sought to integrate this knowledge into my artistic process. Energy is all around us. Everything is energy.
What’s next?
Our vision for the future is to expand. The most anticipated event on our calendar is the upcoming fashion show, where we’ll unveil a new jewelry line. Our goal is to captivate audiences with a one-of-a-kind collection that embraces diversity and individuality, catering to a broader spectrum of tastes and styles.
We’re eager to introduce new designs that redefine everyday luxury and broaden people’s horizons. My goal is to not only define high energy as luxury but also to show that luxury is meant for all to experience and enjoy. The only way to live in luxury is with high energy. crafting exquisite pieces that blend timeless elegance, ensuring that everyone can experience a touch of luxury in their everyday lives.
By embracing Pachamama, we aim to highlight the importance of sustainability and ethical practices in the fashion industry. Through our designs and sourcing practices, we seek to honor the essence of Pachamama and promote a deeper understanding of the connection between healing, fashion, and our environment.
Our plans for the future are geared towards elevating the jewelry and fashion experience to new heights. To contribute to a more conscious and culturally enriched fashion landscape. We look forward to shaping a high-energy and more stylish future for everyone who appreciates the art of self-expression through fashion.
