This work is based on the idea of the relationship between jewelry and clothing. Each piece is individually shaped by hammering a sheet of copper. The object is attached to fabric with a ring and worn like a brooch.

When it is worn beneath the cloth, the form wrapped inside seems to transform. Folds, distortions, and tensions appear in the surface of the fabric, creating a range of subtle expressions.
