Ornament as Shield
I use ornament the way women before me used jewelry—not only to adorn, but to protect. Each mark I place becomes a silent shield, holding the heart steady against time, gaze, and expectation, Delicate forms gather and layer like a protective skin. What appears decorative reveals itself as deffence—each mark guarding the heart, each relief echoing the wisdom of women who adorned their bodies as acts of care, belief, and survival.
