Hair as a bond.

Before photography became the norm, the beloved would send a locket of hair in a necklace to her fiancé so that they could always be together. In the 19th century mainly, it was common to keep a person's hair to transform it into bracelets, rings, chains, etc. These objects could be tokens of love or promises of remembrance.

Nowadays, young artists use hair to make jewelry and various objects. However, these contemporary practices of jewelry go beyond the notion of the small portable object and explore different formats that question in particular the relationship between the object and the body.
