Artwork Introduction
“Gestural Whispers”is an innovative jewellery design project by Jiale Zheng, aiming to explore the role of body language in emotional expression and psychological healing through the medium of jewellery. The project draws inspiration from her deaf-mute cousin’s gesture-based communication, sparking her interest in sign language and body language. The series includes “Promise Series” and “Nervous Series,” with each piece capturing and conveying rich emotions and messages through unique designs and materials.
By experimenting with and exploring a combination of materials such as liquid metal, silicone, and electronic components, Jiale has created a series of interactive jewellery pieces. Her designs focus not only on visual aesthetics but also on the dynamism and emotional interaction during the wearing process. These pieces aim to help wearers express their inner emotions, providing emotional healing and psychological comfort. This project offers new perspectives and approaches in contemporary jewellery design, demonstrating the significant potential of jewellery in emotional expression and healing.
