Sterling Silver, Rose petals, UV glue
A pair of glasses for one individual to wear. The second phase of the relationship is that the two individuals may separate for reasons unknown and return to being single. These are a pair of high-contrast glasses. The left side is the standard frame, and on the right side, I used the broken lens as a metaphor for the heart, which is now broken. The inspiration comes from glass fragments to express the emotional state, which is presently broken. UV glue is the primary material of glass fragments, combined with roses sealed in the fragments. At this time, the rose also appears withered and broken, implying that the hot love has disappeared, is now broken, and the wonderful feeling no longer exists. I will add pearls to address tears. The pearl stuck on and around the broken lens as if tears were spilling out of the eye socket.
