The Shape of Old Memory

The creation of this series of works comes from the designer’s thinking on the innovative application of traditional craft culture in contemporary design and its innovative application value. Traditional craft culture is like a treasure sunk in the deep sea. People can perceive its existence and value but rarely touch it. If it is not salvaged, it will fade away and disappear, which is regrettable. Another innovation in this work is the use of epoxy resin AB glue, it can help the work maintain its good shape like sculpture, and, pay an important role in decoration.
