The Jewelry Box
"The Jewelry Box" is designed to mirror a long-term relationship. It will pass through several stages in it's lifetime, and, in doing so, it's message and behavior will change. The amount of time it takes to pass from one stage to the next (hence the complete lifespan of the relationship) is, for the most part, in the hands of the owner: by the number of times the box is opened and the time that has passed since the last opening.
In effect, the artwork is about investment; both in precious objects (jewelry and/or artwork), as well as in relationships (human to human and/or human to technology); and the behavior of the object (e. g. the content of the messages) reflect this concept.
