Entry Description

Inspired by the body’s so-called imperfections—stretch marks, scars, wrinkles, hair, and spots—this series reimagines them not as flaws but as records of growth and change. These marks become geological textures of the skin, tracing shifts through time, pressure, and expansion. They reveal the body’s fluidity and complexity, shaped by history and experience. Through jewelry, I view the body as an ecological system parallel to nature, subverting ideals of perfection and granting new agency to these undervalued features.
