She's the desire & she's the lust brooch

This porcelain, pigmented and gilded piece is part of the SHE series. The collection touches on the intimate but also problematic topic of femininity. The idea of the collection initially started as an inquiry about one's own knowledge of the complexity of the female body and quickly developed into a larger investigation into the status of women in the world. In the end, it is also an evocation of the beauty of femininity for Raluca.
