“The Cabinet of Love for a bit of Fluff”
In the research project 'The Cabinet of Love for a bit of Fluff' Kristy Bujanic investigates the possibilities to communicate childhood memories trough jewellery and objects. The feelings attached to these memories are personal but still very recognizable. She focuses on balancing the duality between love and disgust by using materials that evoke recognition and enhance these universal feelings. Her work can be situated within different rooms in the mental image of a house. These rooms now only exist in her memories. She chooses spaces that made a big impression on her. For this project she choose the bathroom, the location where our loved ones are allowed to be their most intimate self. Here you can experience the raw reflection of a person’s real physical being and simultaneously love them for it.
