Designer biography:
Studied virtual fashion at Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, and went to the Royal College of Art to study Jewellery and Metal after graduation. Focuses on the meaningful things hidden in daily life and personal emotions and life experiences, and tries to use unconventional materials to make jewelry and provide a sense of interaction for the wearer.
Collection concept:
1. This project is inspired by the liminal space in life, in which a lot of reflective and refracting materials are used, intending to give the wearer a surreal visual experience.
2. This project explores the connection and relationship between scent, colour, memory and materials through my own life on campus, in an attempt to use scent as a medium for design expression and the creation of a memory archive, allowing the wearer to deepen their awareness and perception of their sensory environment.
