Original artwork description:
The BIJOUTERIE series
In this series, oversized earrings dominate the canvas—so large, they almost consume the figure itself. These exaggerated adornments are more than accessories; they are monuments to a world obsessed with wealth and status.
When luxury becomes larger than life, does identity disappear?
Do we own opulence, or does it own us?
As the boundaries between self and possession blur, only one question remains—what is left of us when objects lose their meaning?
What happens when what we wear begins to define who we are?
