I was looking for the answer to the question “what is jewellery?” when finished the latest study in curating contemporary design, I wrote down an explanation:
Jewellery has always been a part of human culture.
Like dance or art, it has been with mankind since its earliest days.
it could be a body adornment,
it could be a family heirloom,
it could be a states symbol or a talisman
in the present day, the question of “What is jewellery?” has been changing.
is it a piece of art or design?
It is whatever is happening now,
whether or not, it gives pleasure to the wearer or the viewer
it is a medium that depicts human stories linking traditional and modern worlds.

來英國念書前，我一直在尋找”什麼是珠寶？“ 研究所結束的那一刻，我寫下了一個答案：
珠寶一直都是文化裡的一環，像音樂跟舞蹈一樣，從開天闢地以來它就一直存在我們的生活裡，它可以是身體的裝飾，可以是傳家之寶，可以是身份的象徵，或者是護身符。
”什麼是珠寶“定義在當代生活中，已經跟從前不一樣。
有人問我，它是一件設計作品還是一件藝術品？我想，它是一個反映當代生活的載體。
不管如何，珠寶給佩戴者跟觀者同等的樂趣。
這個載體，刻畫著人類的故事，連接傳統跟摩登的世界。
人類史一直在進化，珠寶也是。
