Object = Jewellery

Objects continuously demand our attention to be understood, therefore leading to strong attachments between human and object.

As we connect to these objects that surround us we project meaning onto objects that have relevance to us, be it a memory or experience, we give objects history to be able to understand their meaning.

‘Things can have meanings that may transform the very world in which we live. But things by themselves alone cannot help us; only in the way we relate to them is their symbolic energy released.’
