Post-Colonial Gold — Wearable Sculpture
A solid, dark form holds a porcelain shard at its center.
The visible fragment carries traces of historical patterns, referring to objects that once circulated through colonial trade — displaced, broken, and recontextualized. What remains is not complete, but fragmentary.
The surrounding form is raw and marked by process. It does not attempt to restore or idealize the shard, but holds it as it is. The edge around the porcelain is intentionally irregular, emphasizing the tension between past and present, fragment and structure.
Within the series Post-Colonial Gold, value is no longer defined by surface or perfection. The focus shifts to what remains, what is carried forward, and how fragments from the past can be used to build something new.
Each piece is handmade and unique, with visible traces of its making.
Not a decorative object, but a wearable sculpture that engages with history, material, and transformation.
