About
Fascinated by jewellery’s embedded narratives, I grew up in an antique collecting family and developed an interest in rich historical items, curious about their stories, cultural significance, and provenance. To me, historical objects function as vessels of memory, identity, and cultural expression. This perspective made me want to create a figure who can transcend chronology. Instead of preserving these objects as static historical pieces, I reinterpret them as wearable artefacts that carry imagined histories and contemporary meanings, becoming modern relics.
Exploring how history can be constructed and reinterpreted through objects, this collection presents a series of fictional artefacts, questions how fabricated objects can shape historical narratives. Through the character of a fictional Time Goddess, contemporary objects are playfully confused with historical references, creating lost treasures that exist between past and future. Inspired by the mysterious black monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey, black becomes the collection’s central colour. Black and white stone, alabaster, Corian, and oxidised and polished metals create ceremonial yet unfamiliar objects, detached from any fixed historical era and navigating history, mythology and reality.
