In literary theory, the ‘gaze’ is a particular perspective considered as embodying certain aspects of the relationship between observer and the observed – and refers to a gender, i.e. ‘the male gaze’. However, this piece is a ‘section’ of an imagined portrait, not gender specific, nor referential to any era or character, it is mysterious and unknown. It’s two eyes, looking out at the world. The area of the iris and pupils are set with natural emeralds in yellow gold, a noble metal which has been used notably in fine Jewellery. To gaze can also be to gaze out to space, to the stars, to dream and to be in a state of flux.
