Cristina Tomàs. Known as City. FilmMaker. He likes the sun.
Filmmaker, director and creative, sees life as if it were in a movie. In continuous search for the sun, the beach and the sand. He lives in Barcelona and works from CLOSCA a space that he shares with other creatives. I went to breakfast with her and this was all he had, although he was notified of our meeting.

What would you tell us about you in a phrase.In a nutshell, I am the type of person who would prefer that my hopes become great and see them crush that wisely keep my expectations at bay and expect to overcome. "Mindy Kaling" are everyone going without me?
What breakfasts? Normally two toast of bread with oil and a cup of coffee alone (and if I have agreed to go to the super avocado, but the truth does not happen much.) My fridge of refrigerator was empty when Naida came to breakfast with me and we eaten the fruit of my studio partner. It is commented that since then Naida no longer has breakfast anything that is not banana and grapes.
What makes you get out of bed every morning? As they say in Japanese culture, which is your ‘ikigai’, which keeps you alive inside. The ikigai is eaten? There are many things that keep me alive inside, I am a very easy person to impress the truth. And it is curious that, although my professional challenges are very important, which most realizes that life goes are the moments that a priori seem unimportant or those that society makes us think that I do not only. You have to live more and sacrifice less for them in case of the future.
Who or what has inspired you lately? In general there are many things that inspire me throughout the day. The world is full of amazing people. But to be more concrete, I recently saw a Netflix documentary that is called Feminist What where they Thinking? And it really made me think of many things. I am inspired by making small changes in my life as if talking if something seems bad or offensive and not being afraid that they get whatever. It goes on a photographs book that came out in 1977. They are photographs of women who abandoned the cultural restrictions of their childhood and embraced all their humanity. Check those photos, those women and those times, and points to our current culture, clearly revealing the urgent need for continuous change. I was very inspired to see women fight for their rights at an era where everything was against him.
What do you dream about? Poetically dream of what I want to get, as I want to live, the typical, my dream is to live in a house in front of the sea, but that for me are more than dreams. Those who seem fun are when you sleep, I almost always remember what I dream and sometimes seem fascinating. My subconscious knows how to have a great time.
How is a day being Cris? I am a person who does not like to plan things much, so my days are quite different with each other. I like not to know what will happen during the day, as far as possible. So one day being me, it can end up being very different from what I had thought, when you open your eyes in the morning. (yes, there will be a lot of music)
‘You created a piece that describes my vision of life, wonderful. I have not removed the pendant since then. So a jewel can be an extension of your person, if done for you. ’
Cristina Tomás on the Phange pendant I made for her in 18k gold. Below in the photo.
What does a jewel mean for you? I think that I have begun to appreciate the jewels and what they can contribute. And it's not for making the ball, but in my 30th birthday my family gave me a naida c.Castel pendant made exclusively for me. You (Naida) You had two concepts that for me are incredibly beautiful. The sea, and the moon. You created a piece that describes my vision of life, wonderful. I have not removed the pendant since then. So a jewel can be an extension of your person, if done for you.
Do you recommend something we can't miss? Grace and Frankie (Netflix) These two women give me life with their stories and conversions. (Ps. I would like to say that Netflix pays me to mention it so much but not)
