The inspiration for this brooch came from the biblical Parable of the Four Soils. Andreia wanted to present all four hypostases of the seed that fell on different types of soil: hard ground, stony ground, thorny ground and good ground. She used natural Jacaranda tree seeds and different types of soil. But only the good ground receives the seed and allows it to germinate and grow. So in that soil she 'planted' a golden seed that takes root and then gives birth to other precious golden plants.
