My work explores the intimacy of jewellery worn on the body and its relationship to selfhood. Jewellery constantly reminds me of my connection to others, through it I explore my relationship to family. I am interested in how interacting with these pieces (whether wearing, displaying, or recalling a piece’s history) informs my sense of self and my sense of belonging.
