| DESIGN NAME: The Metamorphose PRIMARY FUNCTION: Kinetic Jewelry INSPIRATION: Khum Chao Luang is an architecture in the early reign of King Rama V, which has the shape of Thai-European architecture. It is the residence of Chao Luang Chao Luang Phiriyathepwong. The last governor of Phrae is located at Nai Wiang Subdistrict, Mueang District, Phrae Khum Province. This is a grand building with 72 doors and windows in total, beautifully decorated with wood fretwork on top, wind sculpture and water eaves. It is the architecture of the early King Rama V era. Which is shaped into a mix of Thai and European architecture or gingerbread which was popular in those days It is now open as an architecture for visitors to visit with no entrance fee. It is an important place for people in Nai Wiang sub-district. The work is designed by using the identity of Khum Chao Luang's distinctive motifs to design an accessory that combines the movement mechanism by which the wearer moves the accessory, causing the piece of jewelry to move on the sides. Able to modify the shape UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Inspired by deconstruction and kinetic method. The concept of this jewelry is about using idea and technique of changing the original configuration, rotating the axis or changing a position of the structure. It is challenging as well as breaks the rule of conventional perception. This jewelry has been designed by the kinetic system, to be able to move and adjust into multiple shape or formation that significantly different from each other. The imitation jewelry glass-ceramic materials were obtained from recycling waste gemstones. Base on the sintering glass ceramics technique using metal powder as coloring agent to develop jewelry applications. The substantial viscous flow of the glass led to dense products for rapid treatments at relatively low temperatures (950 celsius), whereas glass/metal powder interactions resulted in the formation of color agent crystals, providing enhancement optical properties. Metallic powder peculiarity is the appearance of a colored metallic shine. There is a great potential for such materials with novel functionalities for artificial gemstone application. The preliminary glass ceramics tests were assessed by both physical and optical properties. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: The pendant can transform into many shapes that make it suitable in many situations. The wearer can change the shape of the pendant by pushing and pulling the pendant. Moreover, the pendant could be present as a mini sculpture that and uses for decoration. The imitation jewelry glass-ceramic materials were obtained from recycling waste gemstones. which is a recycle material that could reduce the waste in jewelry-making production. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in April 2020 in Bangkok Thailand and finished in April 2021, and was exhibited around Bangkok in 2021. The project has been developed from many of my kinetic jewelry projects from 2012-2021. |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Designed by a 3D program with high accuracy. About the prototype printed by 3D printer machine (Rapid prototype) at the micron level of accuracy, which allows the sophisticated parts and design. Every part is completely fit together, and could make a fluid movement. The Mechanical and joints that have been developed from the traditional jewelry making could make a difference in assembling process. The new joint and small part can be assembly together without using welding. This unique technic reduced the heating and save more energy from welding process, which is more friendly to the environment. The imitation jewelry glass ceramic materials were obtained from recycling waste gemstones. Base on the sintering glass ceramics technique using metal powder as coloring agent to develop jewelry applications. The substantial viscous flow of the glass led to dense products for rapid treatments at relatively low temperatures (950 celsius), whereas glass/metal powder interactions resulted in the formation of color agent crystals, providing enhancement optical properties. Metallic powder peculiarity is the appearance of a colored metallic shine. There is a great potential for such materials with novel functionalities for artificial gemstone application. The preliminary glass ceramics tests were assessed by both physical and optical properties. The effects of nitrogen plasma have markedly improved surface hardness, anti-tarnish and corrosion resistance of the silver casting jewelry samples. By measuring the change in the color of the corrosive samples using a spectrophotometer. The improved corrosion resistance was believed to stem from the rapid formation of a more protective film containing nitrogen nitride in salt Sulphur and air environment. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Dimension: Width 20 mm x Depth 20 mm x Height 40 mm Weight: 8 grams Material: Silver, Glass ceramic TAGS: jewelry, kinetic, kinetic jewelry, Phrae Province, Khum Chao Luang, Thailand, Glass ceramic, Nitrogen plasma RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Kinetic and interaction are significant. Firstly, according to many research indicate that human eyes and attention have been developed to be attracted by a moving object. For example, we always attracted by moving people or object compare with nonmoving objects. Secondly, physical interaction is a part of human life. For example, we always use our hands to interact with something. For these reasons, I decided to combine Movement and interaction methods together in my jewelry to create a unique experience between the wearer and the jewelry. CHALLENGE: In order to create kinetic jewelry, I need to be completely understood in many kinetic aspects such as animal action and machine movable systems. I also need to transfer such a significant small piece of mechanism into my jewelry. In my point of view, my jewelry is an art piece that people could engage or play with it. for this reason, the wearer will feel completely connect with my jewelry.
