Hanging gardens

This shoulder trim conceals several pieces in its foliage: the pin "Gardens" from which can be detached a smaller piece, the pin "Primary Forest". This prototype, the first version of the piece, is made with various Japanese papers, hand dyed for green foliage. The suspended bridge structure is made with brass profiles, formed and assembled by hand, then patinated.
