Necklace: Fortunes Voyage by Qian Chen.Silver, titanium and aluminium. 2023.31 x 71 cm.Photo by: Chen Bei BeiUnique piece.The wind comes and goes without a trace, but it leaves some marks, indicating that it has been here, just like the brilliance of history. Although it will never return, its existence has shaped who we are today.
.
. Each jewelry piece embraces the concept of wearable ‘’sculptures’’. They perfectly blend into the artistic manifestation like the table-based sculptures when laid still but transform into wearable jewelry once one engages the jewelry onto the body. The inspiration developed from the enchanting caves of Italy in Marche, Frasassi Caves; the pieces progressed from the mesmerising formations and dynamic forms and shapes shaped by the wind over centuries. The designer’s cultural heritage resembles the Dunhuang caves and the Buddhist temple on the Silk Road with a sophisticated mural found.
.
. The designer infuses the unperceivable movement of the wind into each jewelry piece; the invisible flow of wind is shown on them once the jewelry is worn. As the wind freely shapes the Italian caves, the idea of the wind takes center stage in this collection, breathing life into each creation. The forms and movements of each piece interplay within themselves.
.
. The sculptural elements, once placed on the body, the jewelry will be brought to life by one's gestures and identity. Importantly, it resonates with the spirit of the wind that echoes around the Dunhuang cave, depicting the flow of the wind that dances around the body through each piece of jewelry.
.
. The collection proves the fusion of artistic inspiration, cultural heritage, and the unbounded possibilities of contemporary jewelry design. It invites wearers to embrace the fluidity of their journeys, connecting with their nature (wind), culture and history. As the jewelry is worn, one is able to engage immensely with it..
