. From the pond in front of the house to the laboratories of the parent research institute, to the professional courses in the university era, I have been traveling in this mysterious and interesting area. Maybe my past life is like that of a little water elf. People are accustomed to large aquatic life, and in the micro-world in the water, there are thousands of species of plankton. The source of inspiration is extremely rich, but it was not easy to man age. It has not become an obstacle to my design of jewellery, but increased exploring fun.
.
. In my eyes, these nature-derived micro-world creatures should also have the right to be understood and appreciated by the world, because though they are so tiny, so neglected, they are still proud, beautiful and attractive, just like a friend who grew up with me commented on me — I prefer to discover the beauty that is overlooked. / Leslye Zhang
