Since 2015, she has been studying in the graduate jewelry program at the Savannah College of Art & Design in Georgia, USA. Her main focus in her study is Product Design, on which she worked during her undergraduate study at the Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology from 2009 to 2013. Miao creates her jewelry based on her life philosophy. She believes that everything in the life decays: it is impacted by time and will change and deteriorate as part of the growing process. When things are no longer pristine, all the details of decay remain on the surface and build a special aesthetic.
作品和设计说明
Series name: Bloom
Material: silver, garlic peel, stainless steel (pin)
Description of the collection “Bloom”
This series of brooch is made by outside layer of garlic peel and sterling silver with the nitrocellulose enamel paint for coloring in the year of 2017. The inspiration is from my previous garlic set and uses natural material to show the unique beauty of the material itself. Garlic peel for me is fascinating because of its texture, thickness and organic look. Yet it is too fragile and it couldn’t be preserved long enough as a jewelry piece. Then I created a new collection of “garlic” pieces, and this brooch is part of that collection.
“花开”系列胸针是我2017年的系列作品,灵感来源于之前的蒜皮珠宝。蒜皮作为厨余垃圾,通常被丢弃。但不妨碍它存在着独特的美感:轻薄,自然纵横的肌理,很像花瓣。这使我产生用蒜皮作为花瓣制作花朵的概念。然而蒜皮作为有机材料十分脆弱,不能作为珠宝形式永久存在。于是我用925银,通过锻造,去模仿蒜皮的厚度和自然肌理,才有了这系列“花开”纯银胸针。
The ultra-thin silver petals were constructed using a silver sheet of regular thickness. I put the first sheet through the roll mill many times until it reached the necessary thinness. After that, each petal was forged separately by being cut in the required shape. The stamen part and petals were first soldered individually, then several were soldered together as a bunch. Finally, the bunch of petals was soldered to the base.
超薄的银花瓣是使用24ga厚度925银片制成。先将银片裁成较小的花瓣大小,多次动过压片机压薄。之后再用锤子分别锻造每一片花瓣,使每一片花瓣都具有自然的肌理,薄厚。花蕊部分,是纯银丝制成,之后再将每一片花瓣同花蕊焊接一体。然后将几片花瓣攒成一束小花瓣,整体焊接,最后一步将一束束小花瓣束焊接到底部。
