Pearl-foration by You Zhi Bi
In Youzhi Bi’s work, holes are no longer mere functional elements in jewellery; instead, they become the central focus. By drilling and perforating silver sheets, she creates lines that evoke the form of a pearl necklace through negative space. This technique is then combined with a familiar jewellery element—the ball chain.
During the annealing process, the beads within the perforations develop a velvety, pearl-like texture, seamlessly merging the image of a pearl necklace with the beaded chain at the heart of the silver canvas.
這系列作品中洞不再為首飾的佩戴功能服務,讓它從配角成為中心主體。通過在銀片上穿孔打洞形成線條,以鏤空的方式刻畫出珍珠項鏈的形態。並與首飾中常見的現成品配件『珠鏈』結合,孔洞中的珠鏈在退火燒白的過程中呈現珍珠表面絲絨般的質感。將珍珠項鏈的形態與珠鏈融合在了銀片畫布中央,佩戴時珠鏈與空洞及鑲嵌珠鏈的孔洞,形成一個視覺整體。通過虛實變化呈現出珠鏈特殊形態,突出孔洞在作品中的多元應用主題。
Material: Fine Silver, Ball Chain
