Becoming Chess Set

‘Becoming’ is a reflection on personal growth and development. Embellished with gold leaf – symbolic of the preciousness of our our experience, marks and scars, are what make us who we are & are to be cherished.
Juxtaposing Swarovski crystals on white and spikes on black pieces, highlights opposite spectrums such as light vs dark & fluid vs structured, all within one’s character and personality. A person can sway between rigid routines, perceptions of right and wrong, and loose structures and fluid growth. Each part is equally important and enables us to uncover different layers of who we are.
