Students鈥 designs are works of art
Print Edition
WORK by students of Jiading-based Shanghai Art & Design Academy have impressed visitors with their creativity and talent at a graduation exhibition at M50 Park in downtown Shanghai.
Among the highlights are Chen Hui’s clothing designs which integrate metal cages, wooden materials, dry flowers and 3D-printed dolls.
“I used five different materials in this design to make people feel the depression of confinement and I want this design to wake up people’s inner heart for kindness and freedom,” she said.
Her work delighted a New Zealand designer who came to the academy on an exchange program that he invited her to New Zealand.
Fang Wenliang’s bottle gourd lights, inspired by the Chinese animation Calabash Brothers, combine modern light design and traditional Chinese elements. She manages to make her lights both a functional lighting devices and works of art.
Founded in 1960, Shanghai Art & Design Academy is one of the most influential, oldest and best-known colleges of art and design in China.
Prior to the graduation exhibition, students won three first prizes and eight second prizes at the second “Think Youth” event, an annual competition and exhibition of creative works by Shanghai college students.
Mao Jialin won first prize in jewelry design with a bracelet named “shrinking distance.”
She says her work represents the soft beauty and broadness of the ocean and she applies metal techniques in wax sculpturing to add complexity.
She said she was inspired by the Chinese poem “If you have friends who know your heart锛宒istance cannot keep you apart.”
