Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (Two Years)), 20 credits / 30 HE credits
The paper talks about the topic of pursuing the perfect
body and how we are controlled by the standards of per-
fections. I chose this topic because of the development of
the Chinese gym industry and personal experience . Many
people try to pursue the standards of perfect bodies and
use these standards to define themselves. Most people
take it for granted that our bodies should look a certain
way. In this paper, I want to question these standards and
raise people’s awareness of the image of their bodies. I will
also talk about my opinions about bodies.
In my practical work, I mix different metals with different
values into one piece and shape the material into vessel
forms. I use the material and the forms to question
perfections and the attitude towards bodies in the society .
Then I make the vessels into jewelry pieces to discuss how
our bodies are treated as jewelry . I use my jewelry works to
question what our bodies are and help people see their
bodies in a different perspective.
