The jewellery embodies celebration through repetition and accumulation, inspired by confetti. Each small, insignificant paper dot becomes a vivid spectacle in mass - bright when tossed in the air, then fading on the ground as a fleeting memory, softening the hangover that follows. Like makeup after a night out, confetti gathers in smudged clusters, dulled by dirt, echoing mascara streaks and blemished cheeks. The work reflects this duality: the dazzling brilliance of the party and the quiet, faded beauty of its aftermath.
