I Love You #1-9

This work was made for "#IMPACT: The Future is Inclusive" exhibition at Art and Design Gallery at Fashion Institute of Technology, NYC (February 12 - March 5, 2019).

I asked nine New Yorkers to say "I love you" in their native languages: Arabic, English, German, Hindu, Korean, Polish, Russian, Spanish and Swedish. I believe that this project represents the wonderful "melting pot" culture of New York which makes this city so special.

I hope to keep expanding this collection of recordings by adding more languages spoken in NYC.

6 Brooches and 3 necklaces
Material: Sterling silver, 18k yellow gold, stainless steel (for pin)
