A small collection of jewellery for and by generation rent. It was created to pay for studio rent. Instead of the seduction of associating with a luxury narrative these pieces are a minimal statement to wear but the titles tell it like it is.

Positioning this information openly reflects a contemptuous relationship between maker and client in regards to quantifying monetary value in relation to the work.
