The Dream of Craftsmanship | Special Jury Award for the Premium Category | Aurora Cup (Neon Craftsmanship)

Thinking of the plot in "Chajin", the ups and downs of the tea-making era in the 1950s make people think of the same situation as neon craftsmanship. From its prosperity to the changing times, it was quickly replaced. Then I thought about the development possibilities of neon in addition to signs in commercial spaces. , how to innovate and change, let neon break out of the inherent frame, and enter the living space of you and me, which is how the (Aurora Cup) was born. (Aurora Cup) Before it is lit, it is an ordinary glass symbolizing [tradition]. When it is lit, the unknown changes are like the Northern Lights, and the change of light and shadow symbolizes [innovation and change]. In terms of creation, traditional local craftsmanship and technological innovation are retained, which leads to the integration of Hsinchu local woodworking/glass/neon/electronic technology and other crafts into the creation of this work. The work will produce light and shadow changes with the air/current/temperature/humidity/contact/surrounding environment, like the Northern Lights, which are infinitely changing and elusive. (Aurora Cup) is both a wirelessly lit atmosphere lamp and a practical cup in daily life. When using it, you can play with light and shadow in the palm of your hand, and savor the unprecedented combination of light sculpture art and food with the pleasure of food and fashion.
