FRAGILITY
Niyousha Moosavi

I see jewelry as a transitional object that carries personal meaning and embodies emotional and psychological connections. This psychosomatic collection emerged from a personal experience, a time when my body began to swell for no medical reason. No treatment helped until I changed my environment and stepped away from the pressures of daily life.
During that period, I came to understand that the body is the silent language of the mind. Emotional and psychological tensions can manifest as pain, swelling, or fatigue psychosomatic symptoms that many of us endure quietly. This realization led me deeper, back to childhood, where our first wounds, fears, and feelings of invisibility are formed. I explore emotional fragility not as weakness, but as evidence of how closely the mind and body are connected. The playful, childlike forms stand in contrast to an inner sense of unrest and instability, much like how, as adults, we hide our trembling cores behind composed appearances.
These pieces invite reflection on the complex relationship between body and mind, between past and present, and between pain and growth.
