The power of her

A six-piece collection of ‘trophies’ which commemorate, physically embody, award and recognise four political, historical events of individuals who inspired me to evaluate my position in society as a woman and which also empowered me to question socially conditioned gender role norms in modern culture.

PORTFOLIO

memento

A collection of jewellery pieces that confront people with the idea of positive remembrance of the deceased. By exploring the designs of Victorian jewellery and cemetery art, I sort to recreate classic designs using modern technologies. This contrast reflects the concept of current attitudes towards death compared to that of the Victorians.
