When we think about love
relations the first symbolic image that comes to our mind is heart, because
this body’s most important organ is the essence of your spiritual and emotional
being. During a love relation, the heart gets different “shapes”: beats loudly
when falling in love, leaps of joy, melts when sharing intimate moments but
also can feel pain when being betrayed, or gets broken when you are rejected,
and this is what the series of brooches called “Tell me where it hearts/hurts the most” wants to depict. As an
extension, the other pieces reflect on the other parts of the body that are
filled with emotions: feeling butterflies in your stomach, a thousand of
needles that suffocate you or pain in your chest when you get hurt, and all
these being a part of the most intense interaction that we call love relations.
