Lacquer Plan: Man Light
While learning how to make lacquer ware, it strikes me that the core value of lacquer comes from the nature of its handcraft. The key to lacquer’s rich tone of color is the repeated process of anointing and polishing. However, to emphasize the character of handcrafting, we expect that the meticulous, glossy feature with its raw, original texture are demonstrated simultaneously on this piece of work, aiming to illustrate the original quality of lacquer as well as the polished luster.
Additionally, by allowing this piece of work to be “incompletely” finished during the manufacturing phase, and disclosing the simple process of industrialization, we hope to make industrial design friendlier for the general public to appreciate.
漆有一種特性，就是在其髹塗多層漆之後，其器型變得圓潤、其光則溫潤，讓人不由自主地想要觸摸，在這個概念之中同樣也希望能夠讓人們想要主動去觸摸漆器，而漆器透過不斷地觸摸，其表面也會越發光澤。選定立燈作為漆藝載體主要也是因為人們每天都會使用到燈具，讓他在隨手可及之處，誘發人去觸摸它。
因此一開始在設計概念的開端就希望它能夠是一個很圓潤的形態，透過漆藝不同技法的呈現，製作出讓人想觸摸的形態與材質。透過髹塗技法，能夠做出溫潤的漆器，在經過多次的研磨過後，便是推光與擦漆的反覆作業，漆器的特色除了越擦越亮之外，隨著時間的變化，顏色也會越來越飽和。而對比方面，利用變塗方式拍打起紋，製造出多重效果，更能夠激發人想觸摸的慾望。
