✦ Synopsis

Jewelry Box is a collection of intimate histories, concentrated renderings of getting older, leaving, remembering. Here, “history" is twinned with “story," where microcosms of daily life, drenched in the past, blossom from objects: a tube of mascara, a cat's tail, mushroom paté. This collection explores nuances of sexuality, motherhood, and what it means to know life and tell a story.
