As a locker for a wrist Loop is a telescopic bracelet which could be transformed by the manipulation of the wearer. Each element is mobile and slide one inside each other. The inspiration of this object comes from the shell, the armadillo or the shrimp, a mecanical animal wich imprison the wrist.
I
am questionning the statute of this artefact and which effect it produce on the user.
The transformation permits by the mecanism of the object transform it in a piece of jewellery instantly. the bending silver tubes which compose the whole piece give it a round, smooth and safe appearence although it is really heavy.
The resounding closing mecanism permits by the hidden magnets produce a surprising and irreversible effect when it closes, like a police handcuffs.
