Not Your Jewels! critiques the British Crown’s structure of power and wealth, revealing its fragility beneath the surface. The Crown flaunts its extensive, ethically questionable jewellery collection pieces often sourced from countries it colonised as symbols of wealth and dominance.

This installation features five large-scale woven “jewels,” made with glistening satin to mimic the sparkle of gemstones yet with a soft, almost toy-like quality. Through weaving, a practice rooted in cultural resilience this work contrasts the strength of Indigenous knowledge with the shallow legacy of colonial power.
