Wearable Sculpture — Post-Colonial Gold

This wearable sculpture takes the form of a basin: an open hollow held within a dark, sculptural ring. Rather than concentrating value in material, the object centers itself around absence.

The hollow becomes a space for memory — a reminder that history does not disappear but remains embedded in matter and collective consciousness. The thin gold line along the rim does not decorate the object; it marks the fragile boundary between presence and absence.

In dialogue with the work of Doris Salcedo (blog )the ring functions as a small counter-monument, carrying memory on the body rather than fixing it in monumental space.
