The Protection Collection is centred around protecting yourself after experiencing devastation. I believe that separation is a necessary subject in everyone's life, whether it is the passing of a loved one or pet, the estrangement of a former friend, or the breakdown of an intimate relationship. I don't judge change in intimacy, but rather accept all the changes deceptions and tears that can occur in intimacy. I accept that all intimate, together-as-one relationships will one day come to a breaking and twisting point. I see every loss as a process of breaking oneself down to rebuild and find oneself, and during this, in order to be able to grow better, people need to learn to have the ability to embrace themselves and to protect themselves.
