Coral Island brooch and hairclip

This accessory is part of Riddhi Patel's Sublime Sealife series, which explores the intricacy of marine ecosystems. Functioning as both a hairclip and a brooch, it reflects the dynamic interplay of coral reefs, living islands where diverse organisms interconnect to form a unified ecosystem. By layering vibrant leather offcuts into richly textured surfaces, the piece evokes the ever-evolving growth of coral reefs and their enduring resilience.
