Maud De Rijck
Carls zus · Architect & juwelenontwerper
Maud De Rijck, gevestigd in Brussel, is architect en juwelenontwerper. Opgeleid in architectuur aan La Cambre en in juwelen aan de RHoK Academie onder Peter Vermandere, creëert ze eigentijdse juwelen waarin het lichaam, de zintuigen en materie een dialoog aangaan - in collecties zoals «Too sensitive» of haar armbanden gewijd aan vrouwelijke Nobelprijswinnaressen. Als dochter van schilderes Charline Mahy en beeldhouwer Mon De Rijck zet ze op haar eigen wijze de artistieke erfenis van de familie voort.
