展覽訊息 :: Exhibition News


去年的碩士作品,將在位於英國倫敦 Business Design Centre的New Designers 2011展覽中,與愛丁堡藝術學院(Edinburgh College of Art)一同展出。這個展覽跟台灣的新一代設計展有點像,許多英國境內的大學院校和設計學院,都會選擇在此展出。當然同時還有許多不同的英國設計展和其他類別的設計展,也會有很多其他學校選擇在不一樣的展覽中出現,如果對英國設計展有興趣的人,這個時間造訪英國可以得到很多不同的收穫。

展覽時間 Time:2011年6月29日~7月2日 Part 1
展覽位置 Position:愛丁堡藝術學院展區 J16

My postgraduate work will be shown at the New Designers 2011 with Edinburgh College of Art from 29 June to 02 July 2011 at Business Design Centre in London. This exhibition is very similar to Young Designers' Exhibition in Taiwan. Many universities and colleges will join this exhibition and show the works of graduates. In the meanwhile, many design exhibitions are held in London as well. This is great time to see all new designs and products in London.

訂製珠寶 :: Custom Jewellery

這兩個月以來,為一位可愛的客戶完成了兩件訂製珠寶~

作品都以客戶所愛的Yuki為主題,分別製成純銀愛心手鍊與愛心相片墜(追憶墜結構)。兩件雖為不同時間製作設計,卻都深富紀念價值,並刻上了值得紀念的日期。完成的瞬間真的十分讓MARU感動!而成套的設計更能展現訂製珠寶的特別之處。

訂製珠寶與一般珠寶的不同處,除了從零開始手工製作以外,最大的不同就是它所具有的獨特個性融合了客戶與設計師的想法被客戶賦予的期望和意義,以及獨一無二的造型。經由量身訂做,珠寶不再只是一個裝飾品,它的價值也不是可以用金錢計算的出來的。相信這兩件作品都可以傳達出,主人對Yuki滿滿的愛與思念。

I have made two custom jewellery for a lovely customer in these two months. They are a bracelet and a necklace which contain the memories of her dog - Yuki, who is in Heaven now. They are made in May and June separately, and marked two special dates for her specific occasion - one is her birthday. They also can be a set. I am really proud of these two pieces because they are finished very nicely and neatly.

It is always irreplaceable having a custom jewellery which is created only for you from the beginning to the end. It not only contains the ideas of customer and designer, also the meaning and expectation of customer. It is so unique. It can not be counted by cost. It means more!

What I found in these jewellery is customer's yearning and love.

去年底的新作有:

These jewelleries are the pieces I made for attending for the street market of Simple Life last year.

I am very glad most of them are already be bought by my sweet customers. In the future, there will be more limited and mixed material items which will exhibit in the street market and my collection.

畢展延伸I : Degree Show Development I

Day 1

我的畢業展已經在上上個週末(8月29日)順利結束了,很開心展覽期間得到很多人的讚美跟鼓勵,還有加油的字句。這次的畢業展有別於一般展覽僅僅將珠寶作品做展示,而加入了許多互動與換新的元素在展場裡面,讓大家可以藉由不同的體驗,來增加對主題和作品的認識。

第一個經由畢展延伸的部份,就是服裝造型的創造。展場中放的三個人體模型,每天藉由上面的"不變"的三件舊衣,與"不變"的珠寶,創造出"多變"的造型,讓大家認識如何經由我的作品塑造出一件衣服的多種樣貌。衣服分別是(由左至右):奶油色的真絲的洋裝,長針織衫和化纖洋裝。我的作品針對不同布料材質的考量,讓服裝的造型在改變的同時,仍能以不傷衣料的方式,增加呈現的樣式。而每天創造不同造型的同時,我也得到了相當多的樂趣,有的衣服甚至能用一種珠寶變化出十種以上的樣貌!

展期的九天中,我都親自到場改變衣服的樣子,雖然不見得有人會連續兩天來參觀,但是這個過程已經變成我的專題的一個部份,希望未來有機會繼續做更多的延伸。

九天展期改變的造型如圖所示:

My degree show was ended last Sunday, 29th August. It not only displayed my jewellery I created but also the transitions of the garments' changes. It is the first development of my project. The photographs which were taken of people are the other evidence of my development.

The first part is how I can create other new looks from one garment at space. There are three pieces of the garment, including one silk dress, one long cardigan and one polyester dress. I put different series of jewellery on them and used them to alter the forms of garments every day. Each piece of jewellery are designed for a certain kind of textile, like 'YES Band' and 'HATE Band' are suitable for those garments which are not allowed to be pinned, such as silk and chiffon. These changes show the possibilities of my jewellery and the garments, like the posters displayed on the glass wall. I also have explored more methods to alter a garment through one piece during this time and it really gave me a lot of fun.

The changes of each day are shown as photographs:
