Wearable Sculpture — Post-Colonial Gold
This work presents a horizontal form in which rough metal and gold meet as two distinct material states. The gold does not dominate the object, but appears as a shifting boundary—marking the point where different systems of value intersect.
Rather than functioning as ornament, the piece reads as a moment of transformation captured in matter. The visible transition between materials draws attention to the construction of value itself.
Within the Post-Colonial Gold series, gold is no longer treated as a symbol of wealth, but as a working material—one that connects, disrupts, and redefines relationships.
The object proposes a subtle shift: value is not fixed, but continuously negotiated.
