Abstract [en]

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.
