Datchuk looks at how adornment can be used to empower and comfort the wearer in these forms, inspired by jewelry and good-luck charms. By rendering these objects on a large scale, she conveys the weight of traditional cultural symbols. In LUCKY Bracelet (2021), she references the Chinese tradition of giving gold jewelry to ensure stability. “In times of uncertainty, I grab onto objects that give me comfort and hold hope, like the LUCKY bracelet, a gift from my Chinese grandmother when I was a teenager.”
