“In the age of social media, young people's mental health is increasingly becoming a concern. The overabundance of information and the pervasive culture of comparison can lead to negative consequences for mental well-being. This jewellery series explores the importance of mental strength and how it can positively impact the world around us. Strategies to build mental strength and cultivate a positive mindset and the potential for social media to promote mental health initiatives are discussed. This series of jewellery serves as a visual representation of mental fortitude, aiming to inspire individuals to embrace their inner strength and showcase it in their daily interactions with others.I used recycled silver in this jewellery collection to showcase my commitment to sustainable practices in the jewellery field. In addition to the recycled silver, I incorporated flush-set CZ stones in various colors to express my belief that internal light can change the environment around us.”
