高芷盈 首飾設計 碩預

對我而言，首飾是記錄和敘事的最佳載體，它是連接著內心和外部的世界，連接著過去與現在的媒介，可以將自己對事物獨特的個人記憶帶入其中，也可以讓觀眾產生共鳴。

我的第一套作品以金屬材料為主，同時使用了印刷圖像，醫療用品等材料。我把它們連接起來，用最直接的視覺語言來記錄我人生中的第一次手術。第二套首飾記錄著我以前所不了解的家人和家庭過往。外公對我來說是熟悉的陌生人，而他并沒有在我的生命中出現過，我沒有辦法去感受他作為親人對我的愛。我用首飾作為媒介彌補我的遺憾，保留他過往存在的痕跡，作為我缺失的情感寄托。

當代首飾的材料的不受限的，在我最近的一個項目里我探索了美甲片應用于首飾的可能性。美甲起初的目的就是為了吸引男性目光，在一部分人眼中，裸露的指甲如同素顏，無法面對公共場所的凝視。我將社交恐懼群體的心理視為一個容器，在從一些自然界現象中聯想到，他們其實就是一個“繭”，在每個“繭”中，你在創造屬于你自己的美麗，你不沖破它永遠不知道里面有什么東西，于是我嘗試用美甲的材料做一個素凈柔軟的繭型，利用顏色和材料質感的對比去表達每個人不同的個性和可能性，希望能鼓勵社交恐懼群體去展示自我。

For me, jewelry is the best vehicle for recording and storytelling, a medium that connects the Inner and Outer, past and present. one that brings your own unique personal memory of things into it, and one that resonates with the audience.

My first set of works was mainly made of metal materials. I used printed images, medical supplies, and other materials to connect them and used the most direct visual language to record the first surgery in my life. The second set of jewelry records the past of my family and family that I didn't know before. Grandpa is a familiar stranger to me, and he has not appeared in my life. I have no way to feel his love for me as a relative. I use jewelry as a medium to make up for my regrets and keep the traces of his past existence as my missing emotional sustenance.

The materials of contemporary jewelry are not limited. In one of my recent projects, I explored the possibility of applying nail film to jewelry.The original purpose of nail art was to attract the eyes of men. In some people's eyes, naked nails are like plain makeup, unable to face the gaze of public places. I regard the psychology of social fear groups as a container. I think from some natural phenomena, and they are a "cocoon." In each "cocoon," you create your beauty, and you don't break it. Never know what's in it, so I tried to make a clean and soft cocoon shape with nail materials and use the contrast of color and material texture to express each person's different personalities and possibilities. Hope to encourage fearful social groups to show themselves.
