“Alone” represents the root of my clinical depression, loneliness. This is created through the relationship of the image in the bone and the titanium. While the connotation has a negative effect, I utilized materials I seek as comfort to craft the necklace. The use of rhinestones on the back of the necklace acts as the concealed happiness that is within, once the depression subsides.
