33 | project update: text in form

For this project, we had to design and create a wearable object with text as the central conceptual theme. We were advised to look at the historical and contemporary use and significance of text in jewellery.

I made a modular charm belt. Kind of something like a charm bracelet, but in the form of a utility belt of sorts. Everything is made of fondant and icing, and the idea is that it has to be consumed for the charm to work (you can share it with other people too). And once there is nothing left of the charm, it ceases to exist.

Here's the catalogue I made to document it.
