Design: Eric Klarenbeek http://www.ericklarenbeek.com Model: Kelly Peelen Music: Nine Inch Nails Materials: Contact lens, medical wire (transparant, flexible), crystals With Thanks to: http://www.fcllens.com First prototype: 2003 Product: 2008 The lenses are now exhibited at Selfridges, London and can be ordered in your preferred dioptre. A contact lens becomes jewellery, such as spectacles ever became a representation of our identity. Our fear for imperfectness makes us modify our surrounding and being, striving for virtual perfection. Not being someone we should be, but someone we could be. Aesthetics are more and more based on Photoshop's capabilities and slightly becomes the norm for plastic surgery, instead of nature. Eye jewellery shows our scientific capabilities while showing the beauty of imperfection.

    CRY, EMO KID! CRY!

    The first couple of blinks the model makes look pretty forced and uncomfortable... This video also makes one wonder why anyone would choose to put eye jewelery in before addressing the gloppy mascara, the flyaway hair, and the pierced ear-holes without earrings. First things first!!

    That's because it's spelled "jewellery" in the UK, but only spelled "jewelry" in the US.

    Ik vind het wel een leuk idee, het word in ieder geval makkelijker om je lens terug te vinden... :) En als het een trend wordt dan draagt toch iedereen het, dus dan is het ook niet raar meer, ik zou het alleen dragen als het een trend wordt dus... :P
