Sometimes I Feel


“Sometimes I Feel” is a collection of three brooches that represent sensations I occasionally experience. The brooches possess a plain, smooth, and comforting feeling on the front, hiding the design in the back, a metaphor for human behaviour. Just like how we hide our emotions inside out of embarrassment and fear. Empty, Lonely, and Worthless. With this collection, I’m presenting myself completely vulnerable to the public, sharing feelings that I never dare to express, as I am often ashamed of them. The aim of depicting these moments is to look for compassion and mutual understanding from the public, that shared the same sensations but afraid to say them out loud.
Accompanying the brooches is a poem.


I achieved my diploma in Liceo Artistico P. Selvatico in Italy and my BA (Batchelor of Arts) at the Glasgow School of Art in 2023. My latest participation to exhibitions in 2023: Marzee International Graduate Show, Budapest Jewellery Week International Exhibition, Venice Design Week Jewellery Selection, Roma Jewellery Week – Alternatives Gallery, Vonmo 4th Contemporary Jewellery Exhibition, Beijing International Jewellery Art Exhibition, “Memories are made of this” at Sarah Myerscough Gallery. In the past months I received Fife Contemporary New Maker Award Prize, The Incorporation of Hammermen Prize, Goldsmith’s Centre One to Watch Prize, Second Prize at the Venice Design Week Jewellery Selection. I was a nominee for New Talent Award at Klimt02 and selected to exhibit at Talente – Munich Jewellery Week 2024.
