Chao-Hsien Kuo
Born 1973, Taiwan

I have been building a garden of my own for many years. A garden of imagination. I collect the seeds of inspiration by taking close-up photographs of flowers and plants, which I encounter in my daily surroundings or during traveling. I like to observe how a bloom is set on the stem, how the petals unwrap to reveal an enclosed surprise and how leaves sprout from branches, from which I can almost hear the popping sounds. I want to capture the gesture of a flower and to depict the energy and liveliness of a plant.

I mainly apply anticlastic forming technique to create my jewelry so that I can achieve light weighted and three-dimensional forms. My jewelry has a very strong sculptural quality.
