concept

We live in a world where time is always fleeting, people are in a hurry and deadlined have to be reached. It s my wish for the future for people to. from time to time, be more conscious of what is happening around them, to halt and appreciate a moment of pause. I want the, to be aware of themselves and their body within the world. By playing with the bead shape and its perception, I want to trigger an awareness of the body and the jewel. The perfect round shape of the bead outline is only visible from one certain point of view. It is only apparent in a brief moment, a moment where we have to stop, look and recognize the bead shapethrough the body.
