DESCRIPTION

Dian Luo, a up-and-coming Chinese jewellery designer graduated from Central Saint Martins Colleges of Art and Design and currently base in London. She believes jewellery is not only a decoration, but a memorable treasure which strikes a chord in our mind. She is talented in expressing the thought of lives by using insignificant object surrounding us, “I want the audience to pay attention on something insubstantial but powerful” she said, “everything has its own reason to exist.”

Dian’s new collection is called ‘Brighten’, which are inspired from cactus. Cactus protect themselves against terrible environment reminds her of power women. The mystery of the female inner world is the centre of the collection. They are beautifully made by LED lights, mirror cards and polydraw into geometric shapes, and controlled by individual switches. When the LEDs are on, the prickly and sparkle shadow reflects the strength and hidden power of modern women.

Using the light as the design source, Dian transforms it from abstractive element into a multiplicity of geometric jewellery piece that plays with shadow and movement. She combines modern technology with ornaments to replace the transitional jewellery which makes people to reconsider the value of precious metals and stones.
