我熱愛寫作，無論作品類型，敘事性都是不可或缺的重要元素。在創作過程中，我一直追問自己：“如何講一個故事？”雖然作品是藝術家的信息，但在我看來，“發出宣告”和“說個故事”是有區別的。我想在個人作品中探索和運用敘述方式，創作出讓觀眾可以“閱讀”的首飾作品。

《戒指非戒指仍為戒指》系列展示了我作為一位注意力缺失障礙的首飾藝術家，如何創造和看待作品。除了成品，整個制作過程和副產品同樣重要。我采用墨魚骨鑄造法，刻意設計了一個變數多且重復性高的制作過程。由于高溫會損壞雕刻的圖案邊緣，我需要準備大量墨魚骨進行重復鑄造，這一過程迅速消磨我的注意力，導致出現許多意外。這些“失誤”被保留下來，用于進一步發展。

作為神經多樣性的人，我面臨許多困難，但也從中獲得了獨特的視角。我難以按照所謂“正確有條理”的方式完成任務，而找到適合自己的工作節奏至關重要。因此，我想在這個項目中運用自己的方式，將那些通常被視為“失敗品”或“不完美”的產物加工，使它們在我眼中變得完美。

作品《榮譽墻》分為兩個部分，包括數件可穿戴物品和一個裝置，象征著我青少年時期的記憶和家人的期望。裝裱框經過了做舊處理，雖然這段記憶已成過去，但其影響仍然持續。裝置由實物設置和象征未實現期望的獎狀投影組成；而可穿戴的獎狀框代表曾獲得的榮譽，并遮擋住穿戴者包括臉部在內的身體。穿戴者的身份因此消解，成為展示其成就的“榮譽墻”。這堵墻不僅代表我們所承載的期望，也代表我們自身。

As someone who likes to play with words, storytelling acts as an essential part in my work. Whether it is by conscious or not, and no matter its presentation form. “How to tell the story?” is the question of all questions for me – a question I continue to ask myself repetitively during the creation of my works.

Indeed, the artists would almost always leave a message in their works, yet I feel there are differences between “making a point” and “telling a story”. This narrativity is what I want to explore and create a jewellery piece that the audience will be able to read through.

<A Ring is a Ring is a Ring> is a series of works in which not only the final outcomes are valued, but also the byproducts throughout the process. Together they represent how I view and create artwork as a jewellery artist with ADHD. By using the cuttlefish casting method, I have deliberately created a procedure containing numerous random factors, that required me to repeat the same process over and over again. Since the outline of the shape will fray and distort under high temperatures, copious amounts of cuttlefish sets were needed for more casting attempts. Through this repetition, my attention span would easily run out, thus causing the deformation of the ring shape while carving it out and accidental slips during the casting. All these “accidents” and “mistakes” have been collected and preserved. It is then, left to me to decide on how to do with them.

Being a neurodivergent person has brought me countless troubles, and at the same time granted me insights from peculiar perspectives. Sometimes people with ADHD can work fine at their own pace, but struggle severely when being ordered to do things in “normal” or “correct” method – which is why I want, with my own ways, to edit the outcomes that would be deemed as failures or imperfections in common views into something that feels perfect for myself.

The two-part series <The Honor Wall> – which consists of several wearable objects and an installation – is a reminiscence of my early teenage years. The work conveys the feeling of the need to play the role of a perfect child and the urge to fulfil others’ ideals to honour the family. The installation combines the solid objects – the empty frames on the wall with a pair of shoulder straps – and the fictitious part – the projected images of merits which symbolised the unachieved expectations. The frames and the merits that appeared in this series are aged and worn out. These expectations – as well as the burden they carried – may seem long lost in the past, but somehow may remain for a lifetime.

For the wearable pieces, most of the wearer’s front body – including face – will be covered by the merit frames. The identity of the wearer therefore gradually vanishes,

and turn themselves into a wall that uses to display all the glories they have won. The “honour wall” is both the expectation we bear and the bearer themselves.
