《鞘影》(Sheath of the Shadow)
Category: Apparel
这次为2025真皮真自我设计大赛创作了《鞘影》。 生长于贵州的我,当地独特的自然生态与丰富生物形态给予我创作滋养,昆虫鞘翅的结构成为核心灵感来源。鞘翅保护与装饰功能,其轻薄韧的物理属性有序又富有变化的纹理形态,恰似个体在社会环境中,以外壳守护本征借独特外在彰显自我。同时贵州多元民族文化里服饰对身份精神的领域表达也深化了我对外在形态承载内在自我的理解,使我以现代服装设计语言转移鞘翅与文化符号的双重意象。 “鞘影”主题聚焦“真皮材料与自我表达”,几乎应昆虫鞘翅的保护意涵,也指代个体界服饰建立的身份边界与;“影”则强调形态与流动感的隐喻性,寓意自我在皮革材质的演绎,突破刻板框架,以艺术化具象化的“影子”传递独特灵魂。通过真皮的可塑性,探索“外在皮革体”与“内在真我投影”的共生关系,诠释“真皮真自我”大赛鼓励的个性表达与材质深度挖深。 以经典黑白为主色调,黑色代表“鞘”的神秘、稳重,象征保护自我的外在屏障;白色模拟鞘翅的天然纹理,色泽寓意本真纯粹的“自我”内核。黑白对比,即强化视觉冲击力,又暗合“外壳与真我”的二元关系—简洁色色调摒弃繁杂干扰,让材质本身的质感与形态成为表达主体呼应大赛对真皮本质的探索。 图案源于鞘翅纹理的抽象提取,这些并非完全对称,而是带有自然生长的随机感,如同每个人独一无二的成长印记,让蚯蚓不仅是形态仿生更成为“自我故事”的载体,使静态皮革拥有动态的生命叙事。 这套设计从自然观察,文化感悟出发,深度挖掘真皮材质特性,以形态仿生,材质叙事、细节工艺,全面诠释“鞘影”主题,试图在大赛舞台,传递“用皮革外壳守护真我,借艺术形态释放灵魂”的设计思考。 This time, I created "Sheath of the Shadow" for the 2025 Genuine Self-Design Competition. Growing up in Guizhou, I have created and nourished by the unique local natural ecology and rich biological forms, and the structure of insect sheath wings has become the core source of inspiration. The protective and decorative function of the sheath wing, its light and tough physical properties are orderly and varied in texture form, just like the individual in the social environment, using the shell to protect the original to show themselves with its unique appearance. At the same time, the expression of the spirit of identity in Guizhou's multi-ethnic culture has also deepened my understanding of the external form and the inner self, which allows me to transfer the dual image of sheath wings and cultural symbols in modern clothing design language. The theme of "Sheath Shadow" focuses on "leather material and self-expression", which almost reflects the protective connotation of insect sheath wings, and also refers to the identity boundaries established by individual clothing; "Shadow" emphasizes the metaphorical nature of form and fluidity, implying the interpretation of self-in leather material, breaking through the stereotyped framework, and transmitting the artistic and concrete "shadow" Deliver a unique soul. Through the plasticity of genuine leather, explore the symbiotic relationship between "external leather body" and "inner true self projection", and interpret the personality expression and material depth encouraged by the "genuine self" competition. With the classic black and white as the main tone, black represents the mystery and stability of the "sheath", symbolizing the external barrier of self-protection; white simulates the natural texture of the sheath wings, and the color implies the pure "self" core. Black and white contrast, that is, strengthens the visual impact, and implicitly matches the dual relationship of "shell and true self" - simple colors and tones abandon complicated interference, so that the texture and form of the material itself become the exploration of the essence of leather in the expression of the main echo competition. The pattern comes from the abstract extraction of the texture of the sheath wing. These are not completely symmetrical, but have a sense of natural growth. Like everyone's unique growth imprint, the earthworm is not only a morphological bionic but also a carrier of "self-story", so that static leather has a dynamic life narrative. Starting from natural observation and cultural perception, this set of designs deeply explores the characteristics of leather materials, and fully interprets the theme of "sheath shadow" with morphological bionics, material narrative and detailed technology. On the stage of the competition, it tries to convey the design thinking of "guarding the true self with the leather shell and releasing the soul through artistic form".
