Can you hear me?
"Constant dripping wears away a stone." is an idiom, originally from the "Han Shu·Mei Cheng Biography" by Ban Gu in the Eastern Han Dynasty (Ban; Yan, 1962). It literally means that water droplets drop continuously and can drip through the stone. It conveys that as long as you persevere, even a small amount of power can do difficult things.This project uses jewellery as a medium. When the audience wears, observes or uses jewellery, they can use it to speak to the outside world, arouse the curiosity and attention of others, and achieve the effect of communicating with more people and conveying opinions. When facing Leviathan, speaking is a kind of conscious resistance. Although the confinement of discourse is like hard rock, each of us speaking out with our voices can be a very important step in breaking down the boulder and improving society.
Dear
In contemporary Chinese society, couples often use money and expensive gifts to measure each other's love. But in ancient times, people used sincere blessings and natural materials to express their emotions to their lovers.In my observation, people may be too easily tied up by money now and have lost the simplest ability to feel love.By using the elements that people used to express love in ancient times, I use jewelry to create a platform for communication and closeness to each other and promote people to face intimacy more bravely and truthfully.
