Tainan National University of the Arts
I am a .... Example: Student, Maker, Educator, etc.
I am a Jeweller in Taiwan, my works are are divided into two major directions: 1. Decorations extended from the body—decorations that are exaggeratedly big and thus change the profile and shape of the body. 2. Surface decorations attached to the body-decorations that are tightly covering the body and thus give the wearer new appearance and visual experience.

Through making jewelry, I explain how the overexpress costumes and luxurious jewelry along with Eastern and Western history become the inspiration for my works.
I present Chinese traditional craft as another inspiration of my collection, and display how the surprising flame can be generated when traditional patterns cross upon contemporary jewelry.

Well I love the resulting combinations!  You have some crazy awesome depth happening because of all the layers and colors.  Keep rockin' them out and I will keep staring at them and drooling!  Cheers.

Hi Heng Lee!  Thanks for the nice words on my work.  Your pixelated pieces are off the chain cool!  Are you hand piercing, laser, or water-jetting them?  Whichever way, you are making some incredible stuff!

SNAG Toronto part 4

I'll leave my Toronto report with a few notes about the conference lectures and presentations. I'd have to say that there certainly was a mosaic of diversity in the 3+ days at the Royal York Hotel. From Damian Skinner's stoic keynote series on the jewelry making/marketing universe in his musical New Zealand accent, through a series of very short "rapid-fire" presentations by a wide variety of artists, to the Professional Development Seminar that lashed the artists and their works to the…See More
