A Diamond Is Forever explores the enigma of ‘woman’ created by the diamond industry and mass media. The work explores how concepts of nature, commodity, colonialism, and patriarchy are used to both validate and scrutinize women in relation to precious stones. The installation, which includes a video, prints, and a replica lab-grown diamond made from the artist’s hair, collapses the distance between subject and object.
