Work 1

Name of Work

Anger

Material of Work

resin; stainless steel; balloon; silicone; PVC

Production Process

3D printing

Design Description

This is a set of jewelry about emotional contagion. I realized that many people in life are infected by other people's emotions, especially negative emotions. This "contagion" affects people's own reactions and behaviors, producing negative feedback and spread. I call this negative emotional contagion as "emotional contamination". I tried to enhance the feelings of jewelry in the wearing process and apply vision, touch and hearing into the jewelry wearing experience, so that the wearer can feel the emotion conveyed by the jewelry. It was my intention to visualize the process of emotional contagion, this is a series of jewelry in motion, let wearers and viewers feel the process of emotional contamination.

In the work of Anger, I've highlighted the ways in which people can explode in a rage, I made a launch structure that looks like crossbow and hid it inside the object, a balloon containing red liquid was placed at the front of the object. When the wearer shouts out in anger, the action of the mouth triggered the launch mechanism to puncture the balloon, then the liquid was sprayed onto the other’s body, it shows the spread of anger.

这是一系列关于情绪感染的首饰。我意识到生活中许多人在被他人的情绪所感染，尤其是负面情绪，这种“感染”影响了人们自身的反映和行为，并产生消极的反馈和扩散。我将这种负面的情绪感染称为“情绪污染”。我试图通过加强首饰在佩戴过程中带给人的感受，将视觉、触觉、听觉运用于首饰佩戴体验中，从而使佩戴者感受到首饰传递的情绪。将情绪感染的过程可视化是我的设计初衷，这是一系列动态的首饰，让佩戴者和观者感受到情绪感染的过程。

在愤怒的作品中，我着重表现了人在愤怒的时候爆发的发泄方式，我制作了类似于驽的发射结构并将其隐藏在物件内部，在作品的前端放置一个含有红色液体的气球，当佩戴者因为愤怒大喊时，嘴的动作触发了发射机关将气球刺破，紧接着液体喷洒到另一个人身上，这样爆发式的喷发体现了愤怒的传播过程。

Fear

Material of Work

resin; magnet; magnetic plasticine; stainless steel; PVC

Production Process

3D printing

Design Description

In the work of Fear, they are a set of pieces worn in pairs. I have investigated many reasons why people fear, summed up several feelings such as darkness, blurred vision, dampness and coldness applied to my work creation. I put a piece of black and damp Magnetic plasticine inside the mask, and repeatedly tested the stiffness and elongation of the plasticine in order to achieve the slow process of fear transmission, hope to create an atmosphere of fear. While wearing the mask, the wearer with the magnetic plasticine will slowly draw the "black" onto the side of the mask with the magnet, black, a symbol of fear, gradually spreads over it，until it wraps around the entire mask，to immerse oneself in fear.

在恐惧的作品中，我调查了很多人们恐惧的原因，总结了几种感受如黑暗、视线模糊、潮湿、阴冷运用于我的作品创作中，我将黑色潮湿的磁力橡皮泥置于面具内部，并多次试验橡皮泥的硬度和延伸程度为了达到恐惧传播时缓慢的过程，来体现被恐惧笼罩的氛围。在佩戴面具时，带有磁力橡皮泥的佩戴者会将“黑色”缓慢的吸引到带有磁铁面具的一方上，象征恐惧的黑色在上面蔓延扩散，直至包裹整个面具，使人深陷于恐惧中不能自拔。

Design Description

In the work of Sorrow, I thought about the blurry eyes and inability to breathe through the nose when people are extremely sad or crying, I made a head piece to press on the head and nose, shaded the wearer's eyes with a liquid of dark blue, a symbol of sadness and melancholy, the liquid poured continuously into the container through the pump, the holes in the bottom of the container let out liquid that wetted the cloth, it looks like it's raining and it looks like it's crying, the cloth is constantly wet and will infect others with the feeling of sadness.

在悲伤的作品中，我考虑到了人在极度悲伤或哭泣时会出现眼睛模糊、鼻子呼吸不畅的情况，我制作了一个头部物件来压迫人的头部和鼻子，用象征悲伤和忧郁深蓝色的液体遮挡住佩戴者的视线，液体通过水泵不断地涌入容器中，容器底部的小孔流出液体打湿在布料上，看起来好像在下雨又像在哭泣，布料在不断地浸湿中将悲伤的情绪感染别人。
