臺灣有著得天獨厚的地理位置,同時擁有熱帶與亞熱帶兩種不同的氣候環境,豐沛的雨量及綿延聳峻的山丘,孕育著多樣化的物種和多彩多姿的文化,社會大眾對這片土地的愛護,而這份情感也漸漸地轉移為對國家的認同,而臺灣的美是需要慢慢去品味、細細的觀察與維護才能感受到的。 幾千年前農民曆出現,這「中國發行量最大,歷史最悠久的書」,把一年中的十二個月分成二十四個節氣,隨著氣候溫度的變化,農民看著節氣,將所有的農事活動做了最適切的安排,是先民流累積無數的經驗,留下的智慧,培育出各個果物,除了亮麗飽滿的外型與色澤,特殊的紋理也吸引人們的目光,要與世界分享的是「水果王國」的美名,也是最重要的在地文化。 有鑒於此,創作者將依據二十四節氣盛產的二十四種果物作為創作核心,希望透過二十四節氣的果物述說屬於臺灣的故事,並保留臺灣農村的純樸及信念。本創作藉由金屬工藝中的「敲花」、「琺瑯」與「金屬線編織」技法,結合小品文的情境融合,為每件飾品賦予新的意涵,突破以往創作型態,探索金屬線編織的美感表現,並以透明與不透明琺瑯交錯呈現表現於作品中,希望藉此創作發揚臺灣的節氣與果物文化,更冀望能喚醒人們對於臺灣這份土地的熱愛與情感。
Taiwan has its superior geographical location, also has two tropical and subtropical different climates with abundant rainfall and high and steep stretch of hills, and breed a variety of species and colorful culture. People in Taiwan cherish this land and turn this affections into the country's identity gradually. Therefore, we don’t feel the beauty of Taiwan until it is required to taste slowly, observe careful and maintain. The Chinese Fortune Calendar, the largest circulation in China and the oldest book, appeared thousands of years ago and divided the twelve months in the year into 24 solar terms. With the changes of the temperature and the climate, farmers followed the solar terms to arrange all farming activities properly. Therefore, it is the experiences that the ancestors cumulated and left us wisdom. We plant various fruits, in addition to it beautiful appearance and full of color, which special texture also attracts people's attention. We want to share the reputation of "The kingdom of fruits kingdom" with the world, which is the most important in the local culture. In view of this, the authors will be based on twenty-four kinds of fruits in season in the 24 solar terms as the creative core, hope to tell the story belonging to Taiwan by the fruits in the 24 solar terms and retain rural simplicity and conviction in Taiwan. The creative works combine the integration of essays context by the techniques in metal craft such as "repousse", "enamel" and "metal wire weave" to giving new meaning to each piece of ornaments, break through the previous creative patterns to explore the performance of aesthetic feeling of metal wire weave, and perform the transparent and the opaque enamel staggered in the works. We hope to carry forward the culture of the solar terms and the fruits in Taiwan and long for waking up more people for the love and feelings of Taiwan.
