Limestone

Limestone is a core element in our planet. It is a common type of carbonate sedimentary rock, formed by accumulation of minerals or organic particles from the earth's surface. The calcium carbonate within the material gives it durability in all places across the world whilst used for different things. The ‘Inner Self Core’ explores the core strength of family as well as the community which we are surrounded by. The use of stone metaphorically displays the durability and long-lasting connections which blood relatives have. Through these connections a persona can develop flexibly whilst staying connected to family regardless of their geographical locations.
