These brooches delve into the intricate balance between artistic freedom and societal expectations. Each piece questions whether beauty can stand on its own as meaningful or if art must always carry a deeper message. These creations embody the struggle to merge personal creativity with the pressure to conform to external standards, reflecting the ongoing dialogue between self-expression and the influences of the wider world.
[Please note that this piece is delicate and will naturally change over time—the crystals may gradually turn white. To slow down this process, try to keep it in a cooler environment.]
