Contemporary jewelry artist Kacie, uses the process of wool felting as a form of meditation, during which she sees her inner world and experiences the process of getting to know, understanding and healing herself.
The particular method of production of the medium wool felting reflects Yuanyuan's struggle with her own negative emotions – the hard, sharp needles piercing the soft wool shape her inner fears, the world she longs for, and the armor that protects her.
