渐变色阶
In Between
2012
手工吹制玻璃的一个最吸引人的地方就在于缺憾与近乎完美之间的细微平衡。这既反映出玻璃材质的特性,也体现了制作者自身技艺。第一眼看上去这些玻璃器皿似乎没有什么不同。但只需近距离仔细观察,就不难发现它们在形状、颜色和维度上的细微差别,令每一件都与另一件截然不同。
作品“In Between”是一系列手工吹制玻璃餐具。酒杯、碗碟以及造型各异、大小不一的各式餐具,组成了一个六步渐变的色阶:从透明到全白。这种渐变色阶并非由喷砂形成,而是源于在制作过程中采用了不同配比的白色颜料。
这种细微的连续变化在餐具的使用过程及相互间搭配的完美契合中更为凸显。除了强调重现这种渐变差异所需要的深厚技艺,此系列还意在鼓励使用者对不同组合及运用的探索。
One of the greatest appeals of hand-blown glass is the delicate balance between imperfection and near-perfection, reflecting both the nature of the material and the skills of the maker. Pieces which at first glance may appear identical reveal, upon closer inspection, slight variations in shape, color and dimensions, rendering each piece wholly unique.
In Between is a collection of hand-blown glass tableware. Drinking glasses, bowls, plates, and accessories of various types and sizes come in a six step gradation – from transparent to white. Rather than sand blasting, the gradation is achieved through the application of varying amounts of white pigment during the process.
The subtle successive changes are enhanced through the use of the pieces and the way they harmoniously combine. Besides emphasizing the artistry required for reproducing such variations, this also encourages the exploration of different compositions and applications.
