The SIM Project combines the histories of photography and jewellery to materialise and value personal digital archives. It focuses on the SIM card, as an international ID card and a key tool for intimate connection that unlocks ‘smartphone suitcases’, to provide a portable sense of belonging.

Launching at the V&A, 3D printed sculptures will feature hundreds of unique SIM-scale glass prints of screenshots, made and worn by people with experience of displacement in workshops across seven countries.
