The rings explore porosity as both form and meaning. Here, connection is understood as something permeable and changeable – an imprint of relations in constant transformation. Inner structures surface sensuously, shaped by the materials’ own capacities to absorb, resist, and release. Natural sponges (bath sponge), porcelain, and metal meet through processes that cannot be fully controlled. Liquids penetrate porous bodies – organic matter dissolves – materials consolidate, melt, and shift. Porosity functions as a way of making and of thinking – a cautious hope that through care for materials and their interrelations, jewellery can echo the fragile, ongoing making of the world itself.
