Material
Gilding Metal, Steel
This project is an exploration of gravity, movement, and balance inspired by a stack of rocks. It is a kinetic silversmithing (sculpture). A significant amount of time was dedicated to crafts to achieve both engineering and aesthetic excellence. The pebbles are hollow and shaped through numerous times of raising, while the patterns of golden leaves are chased onto the surface, creating a fossil-like texture that reflects the contemplation of time. The entire artwork embodies a sense of effortless strength, natural rotation, and equilibrium influenced by external forces over time, embodying the concept of "和"(He: harmony) found in Chinese philosophy—a state of calm, patience, and embracing the natural flow.
