A Sign to Give Up (2025) is a one-off original from the Negative Affirmations series. Made from a reclaimed street sign and hand-embellished with rhinestones, the work transforms a public directive into a private confrontation with inherited narratives around aging, worth, and when to yield. Framed in aluminium, the piece balances grit and glamour, reframing “giving up” not as defeat, but as irony and resistance.
