This project started at a time when I was experiencing changes in my mental state, a feeling of inner instability. Through my study, I found a deep connection between mental balance and the balance system of the water in the body.
In this series of jewelry, I refer to internal organs that play an essential role in the balance of water inside our body. Not only do they connect to our physical balance, but also to our emotional balance. The jewels express the connection between our physical organs and our emotions. My design process for each organ is influenced by the emotion it triggers. I chose to present the emotional balance system outside the body, and by doing that turning the tangible body into an emotional representation. Normally, hidden beneath the external thus producing the wearer a balance between body and mind.
Each one of the jewels is a brooch that is connected to the body through two needles on each side of the organ, to make it balanced as well.
