Most people who witness corpses or dismembered bodies as gory images in movies or other media look at them with physical discomfort or fear. However, I believe that even the most brutal things can have a beautiful, albeit violent side to them. Therefore, through this series of works, I wanted to explore the possibility of the corpse possessing beauty in the form of jewelry. I chose to use enamel and ceramic as the primary materials for the series, and controlled the colour and texture of the materials to mimic the texture of a decomposing body. This is a series of narrative jewelry, and I have given the three 'dead' the story of their death. 1-The girl sat on the sofa, watching the TV, then died. When she was found the maggots crawling all over her face. 2-Two girls were disembowelled in the bathroom, and their intestines were joined together. I want my work and photography to visually demonstrate the Violence Aesthetics.
