Memory (Merry-go-around)
Jewellery
2023
This project is inspired by a childhood memory of riding a merry-go-round. Using 3D modeling and jewelry design, I aimed to capture the joy and freedom of that moment in a piece of jewelry.
“This project is inspired by a childhood memory of mine. Although many details from my early years are unclear, one of the few memories that remains vivid is the time spent at an amusement park, riding the merry-go-round. The feeling of freedom and joy from riding the merry-go-round still lingers in my mind, evoking a sense of happiness from that moment. The joy and happiness I felt during that time have left a lasting impression on me, and through this project, I aim to preserve that memory. My work combines 3D modeling and jewelry design to create a piece that embodies the essence of that moment. The curves and movement of the merry-go-round reflect a sense of freedom, and I hope to capture the happiness I felt, creating a design that uniquely preserves this memory.”
