Background
This year marks 50 years since women gained the right to decide over their own bodies and lives with the introduction of free abortion. But how do we talk about abortion – without shame?

How do we talk about abortion?

That’s what the designer wants to focus on, so she has created five brooches based on five different narratives and five personal stories. The handmade brooches establish the connection between items worn on the body and the all-important conversation, and they symbolize the wordless stories, the life lived and the freedom to choose for oneself.
