Fragmented mnemonics : an investigation into contemporary jewellery as means of externalizing memoryGroenewald, Joani 03 1900 (has links)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis interrogates my own memory in order to illustrate its fragmented and unstable
nature. I revisit a specific childhood memory and attempt to recreate it visually through the
creation of jewellery pieces. However, the unattainability of a consistent memory becomes
increasingly evident in the process of its externalization. My work thus speaks of the
unravelling of memory, as well as the piecing together and imagining of a new memory. This
thesis and my practical work are an exploration of this ambivalent nature of memory. Even
though memory is concerned with the past, it is also about the present as our memories can
also be manipulated by present prejudices. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek my eie geheue met die doel om die onstabiele en gefragmenteerde
aard daarvan uit te wys. Ek verwys na ‘n spesifieke herinnering van my kinderdae en poog om
dit visueel uit te beeld deur die maak van juweelstukke. Die onbekombaarheid van ‘n
konstante geheue word egter al hoe duideliker wanneer ek my herinneringe visueel probeer
uitbeeld. My werk demonstreer die ontrafeling van my herinnering en die konstruksie en
verbeelding van ‘n nuwe herinnering. Hierdie tesis en my praktiese werk dui op die ondersoek
van die wispilturige aard van die geheue. Hoewel herinneringe en die geheue te make het
met die verlede, het dit egter ook te make met die hede, aangesien die hede ons herinneringe
van die verlede kan manipuleer om aktuele behoeftes te bevredig.

Artificial DisseminationFleetwood, Brian 06 May 2014 (has links)
This writing is an experiment in combining the two most important frameworks through which I understand the world, the storytelling traditions of my people, the Mvskoke(Creek), and the rational tradition that began with European Enlightenment era thinking. By weaving allegorical narrative (much of it personal) into theoretical speculation, I draw connections between recollection, truth, and the act of making. This examination of the gaps and connections between seemingly disparate worldviews, runs in parallel to the purpose of my work, wherein I construct fictive symbiotic and parasitic relationships between jewelry and wearer. This work takes advantage of the wearer as environment, resource, and propagator. By abstracting from real-world biological structures, this work conflates genetic and memetic dissemination. I am creating systems and models of systems using individual jewelry pieces for specific wearers that reflect the structure of arrangements that are repeated throughout nature. Ultimately I am raising questions about the hard lines that we draw between things in nature—including ourselves—and our place in biological, cultural, and personal systems.

The utilization of clothing imagery into the fabrication of jewelryDouglass, Melinda January 1989 (has links)
The primary objective of this creative project was to develop an imagery source through the observation and analysis of historical and contemporary clothing. The secondary objective was to produce both jewelry and functional objects in metal that reflected the author's personal interpretation of such garment forms. This body of work employed a variety of traditional metalsmithing techniques. / Department of Art

Ensam är stark!?Alstorp, Paulina January 2014 (has links)
I am interested in humans, bodies, movements, directions and how they affect each other. How we move towards each other or away from each other, inside a home or outside. How we relate to each other and to what people say and do. Co-operations between people that occasionally, possibly, do not work; how certain relationships, like certain materials, can have various breaking-points; that materials can be laden with numerous preconceptions, for instance what they should be used for. Beginning from the perspective of a feminist commune, I have explored the concepts of family, belonging, and loneliness. I have interviewed, observed, photographed, and through living in the commune during shorter periods of time, I have taken part in their every-day life. Through this investigation I have become more aware of my view on loneliness and belonging, regarding both myself and others. Can we as humans stand alone, or is interdependence necessary to reach our full potential? Can we experience loneliness in spite of co-existence? And can we feel togetherness in our loneliness? I have created objects in which I hope the observer can recognise themselves, in the emotions I wish to communicate. It may be about shame; shame for not fitting in; not belonging; a nagging sensation that you are not “right”. It may be the dark side which can arise through togetherness; like being situated in an environment where you are surrounded by people but still do not feel you belong; but also the feeling of release that a self-imposed seclusion can give. Through my jewellery I want to show that the way in which something or someone is decorated can raise standards, values and preconceived ideas. / <p>Har tagit bort bilder av upphovsrättsliga skäl</p>

Traditional Vietnamese lacquering processes and their applications to contemporary jewellery and small scale body related objectsTieu, Bic, Design Studies, College of Fine Arts, UNSW January 2007 (has links)
The lustre and luminous qualities inherent in lacquer objects speak of a revered historic technology chronicled by remarkable achievements. Sophisticated lacquer objects from East Asia and Vietnam are products of the integrated histories, technologies, and cultural expressions of these territories. The application of lacquer as a decorative medium originally developed in China. Through exchange and trade, the material was transmitted to neighbouring countries where each region explored the material and developed distinctive styles and techniques. Although lacquer from East Asia and Vietnam share similar material natures, the cultural attributes of lacquer, it's aesthetics, design, form, and symbolism provide for marked distinctions across the zone. Vietnamese lacquer contributes surface techniques and motifs to the lacquer repertoire. The aim of this research is to investigate the materiality and processes of Vietnamese lacquer as a surface ornamentation integral to the design and making of objects. The published material is dominated by descriptions of the aesthetic achievements of lacquer objects with little coverage of the technology, techniques, and practices employed. There is a scarcity of contemporary research on Vietnamese lacquering processes written in the English language. This research was fuelled by a research field trip to Vietnam during 2004 workil,1g with Vietnamese lacquer artists on traditional lacquering techniques. During a residency at Hue the lacquer working processes were observed, documented and techniques sampled. This traineeship incorporated the preparation of traditional tools, of the substrate, and the application of lacquer painting techniques. Preparatory samples and templates were made in Australia for later experimentation in Vietnam. These samples were treated with lacquer and illustrate the possible exploration of Vietnamese lacquering techniques in a contemporary context. The research is a material investigation of traditional Vietnamese lacquering processes applied to jewellery and object making. The studio practice aims to reinterpret the traditional material language of lacquer by allying it with contemporary methods and techniques. This synthesis combining traditional art methods and digital technology is expressed as a series of objects inspired by floral motifs. The seasonal floral images are significant, evoking concepts of creation and renewal. The interpretation of these graphic florals provides a contemporary representation, aesthetic, and cultural reading for the material, maker, and motif.
