Mixed media assemblage inspired by quarantine.

My works are all handmade, including wool felting, champlevé and stone setting. Every work has a structure of being shrouded, just like people are shrouded when they are isolated. Though isolated during quarantine, I still kept improving myself and experienced personal growth. I used gems and wool in the center of the structure of each work. These materials fit my inspiration because can grow by themselves just like my own growth and improvement during quarantine period.
