Final piece 1: Veins and Blood

These pieces are inspired by Gijs Bakker’s pieces focusing on the body and jewellery’s relationship to it. Does the body influence the jewellery or the jewellery the body? To reflect on this I wanted to replicate the wrist and have it wrap around the wrist, forcing this part of the body to become a bracelet that reflects the positioning of a bracelet: falling and resting around the forearm and hand. To examine this concept I would create this in 3 different materials and hopefully communicate 3 different things but in the same form.
