ME Necklace
Representative work "EIKON #V.M" 2020
"ME" was born from the desire to create something that could comfort me and others during the difficult time of the COVID-19 pandemic, where creating and presenting works was challenging. I named it "ME" with the hope that it would be "me for me, and you for you." "ME" has various masks, and its expression changes according to the wearer's emotions at any given time. I would be delighted if my "ME" could become something for you, and so it was decided to release it as jewelry. The necklace utilizes Justin Davis's technical expertise to be as close to a sculpture as possible, and the mask is equipped with magnets, allowing its expression to change. Furthermore, diamonds are set in the eyes to give "ME" the sparkle of life. Please enjoy the world of JUSTIN DAVIS and KOTARO YAMADA.
