OPIUM
Degree project
"Fascination"
I imagined an earring inspired by the opium smoke, its fascinating volutes and whirlwinds, but also its danger : it conveys the intoxication of opium into the smoker’s lung.
That why I designed an earring representing the swirls of the smoke in two parts : one turning in a fascinating movement below the lobe, and the other one crawling along the ear, beautiful but also menacing. I enhanced this threat of the smoke with the black color of the metal.
Finally, I used three colorfull rhinestones to symbolize the supernatural visions and feelings brought by opium.
