游悠          首饰设计

Being observant, I am skilled in transforming inspirations and materials in life into concrete works. Additionally, I have a keen perception of colors and scents, loving to experiment with various materials, exploring and utilizing their unique qualities and textures, and incorporating them into my artistic expressions.

In my series of work entitled Family Portraits, I would like to recall my childhood memories with my grandparents. I selected items associated with each individual’s scent as the primary materials, including liquorice, braised meat seasoning, and gelatin water. Then, based on the distinctive characteristics of my grandparents, such as their personalities, I extracted elements such as colours, shapes and textures and combined them with the main ingredients to create a unique“self-portrait”.

I use innovative materials and fuse them with jewellery techniques for artistic expression. To create the rough texture of my grandfather, I grind the braised meat seasoning into a powder, mix it with gypsum powder and let it dry to create a rough texture. For my grandmother’s dry and rough texture, I melt gelatine leaves, mix them with gelatine water and soapy water, and blow bubbles. When the bubbles dry, they mimic the roughness of my grandmother’s hands. As for my own smooth texture, I use liquorice powder mixed with silicone gel, which gives the artwork both resilience and smoothness. I have extracted colour palettes from these three main materials, for instance, I represent myself with a fresh green, my grandmother with an angry red and a calm blue, and my grandfather with a warm and steady yellow-brown. Then, based on each person’s character, I chose corresponding shapes: I am a cone, symbolising my caution towards strangers; my grandmother is a triangle, representing her sharp tongue but tender heart; and my grandfather is a trapezium, symbolising his upright nature. By combining these colours, textures and shapes, I created the final artwork.

我善于观察，将生活中的灵感和材料转化为具体的作品。我对颜色和气味敏感，喜欢尝试各种材料，并探索它们独特的特性和肌理，将其运用于我的创作表达中。

在《家庭"画像"》系列作品中，我以纪念我与爷爷奶奶的童年时光为目的。我选择了与每个人的气味相关的物品作为主要材料，包括甘草片、卤肉料和啫喱水。根据爷爷奶奶的性格特点，我提取了颜色、形状和机理等元素，并将它们与主要原料进行组合，创作出独一无二的"自画像"。

我运用新型材料结合首饰语言进行表达。为了制作爷爷粗糙的肌理，我将卤肉料磨成粉末，与石膏粉混合并风干，营造出粗糙的质感。奶奶又干又糙的肌理则是通过融化吉利丁片，混合啫喱水和肥皂水制作泡泡，并在泡泡风干后触摸起来呈现奶奶干糙的双手感觉。至于我的肌理，我使用甘草粉混合硅胶，赋予作品柔韧和光滑的质感。我从这三种主要材料中提取各自的色彩板：我是清新的绿色，奶奶是愤怒的红色和冷静的蓝色，爷爷是温暖沉稳的黄棕色。接着，根据每个人的性格特点，我选取了相应的形状：我是圆锥形，象征着对陌生人的警惕；奶奶是三角形，代表她口是心非的个性；爷爷则是梯形，象征他为人正直。通过结合这些颜色、肌理和形状，我创作出了最终的成品。
