Research Problem and Aims

 

The central issue in my research lies in discerning whether people will perceive a compelling need to purchase my jewelry as a means of honoring and feeling close to their departed loved ones, given the array of existing options available. Notably, historical figures such as Queen Victoria established a significant legacy in memorial jewelry, exemplifying the expression of grief through fashion. This tradition continues with contemporary memorial pendants and lockets, integrating photographs or relics to foster a sense of closeness to the departed, like the use of ashes and hair in jewelry.

My specific objective, amidst the presence of numerous artists crafting memorial jewelry, is to provide a tactile and intimate experience for individuals seeking to feel a direct connection with their deceased loved ones. While the concept of incorporating hair and ashes into jewelry is not novel in the realm of remembrance, my focus on sculptural mini-faces aims to offer a distinct way for individuals to feel a tangible connection with the faces of their departed family members, even though they are no longer physically present. This vision strives to elevate the emotional and sensory engagement of remembrance jewelry beyond the established norms.
