Eunice Kuo
Metalwork Artist
Squirdgy Species, 2012
BA final project.
Frequent summer afternoon thundershowers in my hometown has inspired me to make pieces that can contain water. As a result of my observations, I gather that most grown-ups feel depressed during the bad weather, while nearly every child enjoys to play in the rain and is not afraid of getting wet.
This in mind, I use bright colours and a playful appearance in my work to cheer people up. My pieces are wearable and combine metal with colourful silicone. One of the collections is designed to collect water, which can be squirted out to surprise the viewer. Another collection is playing with texture of silicon rubber. I wish to bring everyone back to the childhood and enjoy the rain.
