This work embodies the void between a designer's ideal and reality into tangible creations. Navigating various roles, the designer balances discord between visionary pursuits and livelihood demands. Embracing this dissonance as integral, the collaboration of different professions reflects himself.
Collaborated design by 6 different identities from one
This work is an attempt to reflect the emptiness that comes from the gap between the ideal and reality of the designer into an object. The designer has a variety of jobs across ideals and reality, including a jeweller, designer, welder, carpenter, barber, and construction worker. As a dreamer pursuing an ideal and a labourer for a living at the same time, he underwent the discrepancy from those occupations. He feels never a fulfilling void from this discrepancy and decides to embrace that as a factors constructing him. He knows his previous interests and jobs have been blurred one day and new ones will come up someday. Therefore, he understands his very current status as completed himself. Various occupations at the moment affect his identity and become good hints to understand him.
This work is a self-portrait of himselves, made by collaboration work by all of those professions. The chain-like object reflects the designer’s attitude in dealing with different hierarchies from ideal to reality of the occupations.
