Pearls for Girls (2021) ~ Planned Parenthood series - Earrings

Used contraceptive pill blisters, fresh water pearls, pvc film, artificial leather, silver

Artist Statement
Driven by an urge to reanimate safe hospital waste - out of date intravenous systems, syringes, and expired medicine - Eva van Kempen aims to honour and restore these discarded materials to what they could have meant. Designed for the human body, Van Kempen proves these materials have the perfect scale to become jewels. The works invite the viewer to look with new eyes and rethink prevailing notions on medical materials, societal or even humanitarian issues.

If out of stock it may take up to 3 weeks to deliver due to production time as every piece is made by Eva herself. If it is needed sooner, please contact Eva to review the possibilities. The numbers can differ from the photo as each pair of earrings is unique.
