About ARTem Boutique

Hello! I’m Emilia Barrientos, the founder of ARTem Boutique, and I’d love to share my passion for art and culture with you. Since I was a child, art has been my language, my way of expressing and connecting with the world. My training at Lisa Thon’s School of Design and my career as a visual artist have allowed me to explore the beauty and depth of art in its many forms.

ARTem Boutique was born from this deep love for art, where every piece I select reflects a part of my cultural heritage and my passion for creativity. Here, you won’t just find jewelry, but fragments of stories, artistic expressions that carry the soul of our Puerto Rican and Guatemalan roots.

My Guatemalan and Puerto Rican heritage is a constant source of inspiration. The richness of Guatemalan textiles and the vibrant energy of Puerto Rico intertwine in each of our collections, as a tribute to the cultures that have shaped me. To me, every piece of jewelry is a way to carry art with you, a celebration of the tradition and craftsmanship that we honor at ARTem Boutique.

In this boutique, I carefully select each piece with a critical eye and a heart full of love for art. My goal is to share that passion with you, offering jewelry that not only adorns but also tells a story and connects with the rich cultural traditions of our lands.

Thank you for joining me on this new journey, and I hope that every piece you choose from ARTem Boutique allows you to carry a piece of art and culture with you.

With appreciation,

Emilia Barrientos
