Mother daughter matriarch
Each piece in this collection captures the unspoken bond between mother and daughter, a relationship that evolves, deepens, and sometimes reverses roles entirely. These are designs for the moments words cannot reach, crafted to honor what matters most.
freeform is a state of mind
Fatii closed its annual 5-day lapidary and inlay intensive in Brooklyn, NY on March 27th.
The students pushed well past their initial design boundaries and truly persevered throughout the course.
As an instructor, Fati encourages experimentation and flexibility. Students are invited to feel free to change their minds during the design process and let the work take them on a ride. It was wonderful to see that philosophy in action during this session.
One for the books!
It's no secret that my approach to creating and teaching inlay is unique and deeply hands-on.
I'm speechless looking at what my students have made.
They've produced something truly outstanding, transforming raw earth into intricate and vibrant stone art.

solo exhibition: THE SHAPE OF MEMORY
NYC JEWELRY WEEK 2025 - BROOKLYN, NY WAS A SUCCESS

thank you: ABC STONE
What began as a solo exhibition and 10-year retrospective for NYC Jewelry Week had blossomed into something far more expansive and resonant.
The Shape of Memory traced a decade of Fati Genese's lapidary and inlay art, where shifting colors, materials, and inspirations marked an artist in transformation. Finished works were shown with sketches and photographs that revealed the ideas behind each theme. Interdisciplinary artist Rohini Moradi expanded the exhibition with an immersive soundscape drawn from the voices of stones, creating a multisensory meditation on matter, memory, and imagination.
retrospective + artist talk + live demo
We invited attendees to join us for a live lapidary demonstration within the exhibition. In this brief but immersive session, visitors experienced the tactile rhythm of shaping stone using a single cabbing machine, the process artists use to reveal form and texture within raw material. It wasn't a performance at a distance, but a moment to come closer: to feel the hum of the wheel, to witness how surface met motion, and to take part if desired. Together, we explored how transformation began not in the polish, but in the first touch of stone and hand.
