NGEI (translates to ‘later in the future’ in Nengone, the language from Maré, Pacific) is a collection of 3 monumental accessories inspired by the Kanak artefacts: the Kanak money, ceremonial spears and magic stones. Those objects were pillars of New Caledonia’s culture and identity. In this collection they take a new form and perpetuate traditions in new ways.

CĀC: (‘spear’ in Nengone) is a modernized version of the Kanak spear, in a jewelry form. ‘CĀC’ is inspired by the slender shapes of the Kanak spear; sharp wooden weapons, they were worn and exhibited as prestige weapons and circulated as gifts in customary exchanges. The futuristic spear is a symbolic weapon ‘piercing’ that awakens the warrior spirits within its wearer’s body and soul. It is placed on the forehead and is worn with pride. It is a reminder of force and courage from our ancestors. In the future, the piece would be integrated directly in the skin, like a prosthetic, and become part of the body.
