My necklace with the appearance of a key chain has a cutout buzzard. The oval shape symbolizes my homeland and the sitting bird symbolizes myself. At the other side of the chain the bird has changed, spread his wings and doesn’t fit in the cutout shape of the oval anymore. The chain is linking both parts.
The conversation with Samantha during the last weeks resulted in the content and expression of my necklace.
The sketches of her idea inspired me to make a necklace with two parts. She supported my idea of the bird that can easily be understood as a symbol for migration as many species of birds are migratory too. The light blue flying bird is a symbol of freedom and my personal reason why I have become a migrant.
