劉子湉 首飾設計 本科預科

我喜愛觀察生活并且喜歡將日常生活的瑣碎融入藝術創作，我認為藝術終究應該來源于生活，并且在此基礎上再去進行深入的思考，融入自己的感悟。

我的作品《沙丁魚罐頭》 靈感來源于高峰期擠地鐵的經歷。我借用“擁擠得像沙丁魚罐頭”這句常見比喻，用罐頭比喻車廂，用沙丁魚比喻乘客。我對車廂內形形色色的乘客進行觀察，用手繪的方式記錄了他們的穿著與樣貌、神情與動作。從而設計了一個個性格迥異的沙丁魚角色。這些沙丁魚被掛在“地鐵的欄桿”上，也能單獨取下來作為胸針佩戴。

當下社會問題是我作品當中的關注點，我觀察到的車廂內的一些不平等現象從而產生的思考，我認為在車廂的每一個人都是一條魚，沒有人會因為你的職位高低或者富裕與貧窮去給你特殊的權利。藝術創作對我來說更像是我與生活中隨機發生的事件還有一些想法產生連接的方式，更多的是體現了我個人情緒的表達。盡管生活每天都在重復，但我還是希望我對我的每一天都充滿新奇感。

I like to observe life and integrate the trivialities of daily life into artistic creation. I believe that art should ultimately come from life, and on this basis, I will conduct in-depth thinking and integrate my own perception.

My work sardine Can was inspired by the rush hour subway. To borrow the common metaphor of being packed like sardines, I use the tin as a metaphor for the carriages and the sardines as a metaphor for the passengers. I observed all kinds of passengers in the carriage, and recorded their clothes, appearance, expressions and movements by hand painting. Thus designed a sardine character with different personalities. The sardines are hung from the 'railings of the subway' and can also be removed and worn individually as a brooch.

Current social issues are the focus of my works. I observed some inequities in the carriage, which led me to think that everyone in the carriage is a fish, and no one will give you special rights because of your position or wealth or poverty. For me, artistic creation is more like a way for me to connect with random events and ideas in my life, and more like an expression of my personal emotions. Although life repeats itself every day, I still wish I had a sense of novelty in my day.
