A collection of unconventional and wearable body brushes meant to engage people in experimenting with bodily sensations and build physical intimacy in new ways. Crafted with natural wood, handmade bristles and leather, these accessories offer a new perspective on how everyday objects can intersect with the world of fashion and personal adornment. They are sensory tools, playful companions, and fashion statements that transcend traditional dimensions and applications, especially through wearability.

Cindy Zhaohan Li demonstrates that design is never limited to mere functionality but has the power to shape and reshape the way we perceive and experience the world around us.
