Sergio Rodriguez is a Mexico City jewelry artist and interdisciplinary researcher whose practice examines the relationship between the organic and the inorganic. Working mainly in silver and obsidian, he treats jewelry as both an extension of the body and a way to reflect on our connection to the environment.
He studied the Basic Techniques program at the École de joaillerie de Montréal and trained in obsidian lapidary at the Taller de Obsidiana in Teotihuacan. Rodriguez holds a degree in Mechatronics Engineering from Tecnológico de Monterrey, where he researched mechatronic systems for rehabilitation. That work led to a collaboration with Politecnico di Milano on designing haptic mechanisms. He later earned a Master’s in Nanotechnology at Tecnológico de Monterrey, studying materials science and organometallic surfaces in partnership with Universidad Anáhuac.
His work has been shown at the École de joaillerie de Montréal’s annual gala and at the Montreal Gem and Mineral Show. He is currently pursuing a Master of Design at Concordia University, exploring the limits of contemporary jewelry and conventional ideas of what is considered valuable through organic pieces made with bioplastics.
