我的作品从传统首饰批量化生产的语境出发，探讨这一过程中人们习以为常的规则，对标准与残次的判断，以及工业化赋予我们的精确的控制力。
商品首饰批量化生产是通过冲蜡机和硅胶模具批量生产出标准化的蜡版，再将蜡版铸造成金属。这个过程中由于各种误差，会产生大量残次的蜡版，它们会被融化成液体后重新冲蜡，直到变成完美的标准的产品。
用冲蜡批量化生产的方式来建立作品与传统首饰的对话，提供一个新的视角去看待这些残次与意外，这些失控与偶然。
My work is under the context of traditional jewellery mass production, discussing the rules that people feel accustomed to, the judgement of standard and defected goods as well as our accurate control given by industrialisation.
Firstly, wax injection machine and silicon mould will be used to produce mass standard wax copies which will then be cast into metal as jewelry. Because of errors, during the process, there will be many defected wax copies. Those imperfect ones will be melted into liquid and injected again until they become standard products.
A special relationship between this work and traditional jewellery is expected to be established via the mass production of wax injection, providing a new perspective of defection, accidental and uncontrollable factors.

第一部分
用母体模具完成100次冲蜡，客观保留第一次到最后一次的结果，铸造成金属，加工完成。不用传统规则做出好与坏，标准与残次，必然与偶然的判断，标准的结果在这100次冲蜡中也可被看做一次意外。

Part I
Use the mother mold to inject wax for 100 times. Retain the wax copy from the first time to the last time objectively. Cast them into metal and complete the processing.
Do not use the traditional rules to judge good or bad, standard or defective and inevitable or accidental. A standard wax copy can be considered as an accident through the 100 times wax injection.

第二部分
从第一部分的100个结果中随机选出5个作为起点，将它们压版制成模具,再次冲蜡，将新一轮的结果铸造成金属后制成模具，再冲蜡，循环十次。机器创造的误差逐渐吞噬标准的母体，瓦解人为精确地控制，所谓的错误成为首饰本身。

Part II
Select 5 wax copies randomly from the 100 copies in Part I as the starting point and use them to make press mold. Inject wax again and cast the new wax copy into metal. Then, use it to make press mold and inject wax again. Repeat this process for 10 times.
The error produced by machine will gradually deform the standard mother mold and affect the precise control of human. The so-called error becomes the jewelry itself.

第三部分
重构第二部分五组实验的最后一次结果，将这个全新的结果制成模具冲蜡，铸造成金属，回归到可佩戴性首饰。机器造物的结果加入了主观创造，最后又回归到机器生产的方式，变得不可控制。新的误差和意外参与进来，成了全新的生命。
Part III
Reconstruct the last wax copy of the five experiments in Part II. Use this new wax copy to make press mold. Cast it into metal and convert it to a wearable jewelry.The outcome of machine production is influenced by the subjective creation, but finally, it returns back to machine production again. This process becomes uncontrollable. With the involvement of new error and accident, a new life is born.
