Wearable Sculpture — Post-Colonial Gold

This wearable sculpture contains a small figurine embedded within a rough mineral structure. Once part of everyday decorative culture, the object now reveals the historical imagery it carries.

Within the Post-Colonial Gold series, the ring explores the value of reinterpretation — transforming a familiar object into a space for reflection on identity, representation, and cultural memory, in dialogue with the work of Betye Saar.
