| DESIGN NAME: Memory of Water PRIMARY FUNCTION: Glass Ring INSPIRATION: Inspired by water's natural form and its appearance under stroboscopic effect, as well as glass's delicate, feminine characteristics. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Memory of water is a unique material exploration in the form of jewellery that explores "preciousness&q OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: This is a ring to be worn / to be displayed as a gallery piece. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: This projected began in 2015, as an interdisciplinary student project at Rhode Island School of Design. |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Glass canes pulled from molten borosilicate glass, then formed around a heated mandrel. Cold work / lamp work post-processing of sharp edges / extra material. The works were later put in a separate annealer, bought up to temperature and gradually cooled to ensure the stability of the glass. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Each ring is less than 1" x 1" x 1". TAGS: ring, glass, lamp work, art RESEARCH ABSTRACT: I started this project with the interest in working with the concept of "re-thinking&qu CHALLENGE: Coming from an industrial design and fine art background, I had no experience working with glass or jewellery prior to this project, especially in terms of small-scale manufacturing of such delicate object. I took a winter-session class at RISD that focuses on the light, shadow and transparency aspect of glass and decided to explore the possibility of turning the material into jewellery. The challenge of this project is mostly just familiarizing myself with the material, the technique, as well as how everything interacts with the body. I explored many different ways of realizing the design until I was finally able to figure it out. ADDED DATE: 2018-06-16 01:02:25 TEAM MEMBERS (1) : Personal IMAGE CREDITS: Image #1-6 : Lucy Yip |
