Jenastyca by Jessica Joy Esparon

Statement: jenastyca deals with the current image of women in Germany, exposing patriarchal structures and inviting us to rebel against them. The atypical material choice for jewellery – earth-related clay – is a counterpoint to the conventional view of jewellery, which often serves the purpose of increasing the value of its wearer in association with its precious materials. Women do not need enhancement, but rather a reminder of their innate value. The wearers are encouraged to internalize the positive declarations that have been integrated into the jewelry through repeated touching, so they become strengthened from within. enastyca is a plea for self-love and attentiveness and is intended to encourage women in particular to set themselves apart and stand up for themselves.
