ICU Light Brooch / Process

Broche Luz de UCI / Proceso

The polished silver ring reflects the cold control of the ICU. The machines that measure and don't speak.
The chaos of encephalopathy is reflected in the tangling of the polished thread. Encephalopathy is what my diseased liver left me with.

The silver liver represents a dying liver or a liver beginning to live. The liver embraces a raw garnet, symbolizing pain and the trauma shared by the donor and the recipient.
The 12mm iridescent stone is from Swarovski, Rivoli cut, Aurore Boreale Crystal.

It seems to us more than just a crystal; it is a phenomenon of light and color that encapsulates sensations.
