Related Works - Week 11



After the Mid-semester Critique, Nella from Craft Victoria mentioned a Contemporary jewelry designer/artist who would relate to my work;

Tiffany Parbs:
She looks at jewelry with direct relation to the body, reinterpreting 18th century medical tools to create works that 'carry with them an implication of an intimate relationship with the body'(Artlink, The 'Improved' Body: Animals and Humans, Vol 22 no 1)





I like the restriction in these works, i have looking at securing the body and making the wearer feel comfortable; these are very different works. Can i restrict the body? but in a way that the wearer is comfortable still?
