Description

A thousand facets sits with Baiyang Qiu and they talk about her education as an industrial designer before she was accepted to SCAD. How a dandelion was a catalyst to her voice and her journey to be the incredible artist she is now!
This conversation is truly delightful!

About:
“Inspired by nature and its beautiful forms, I use extremely fine gauge wire of high karat gold and platinum to bring my designs to life. Whether it be a tiny raindrop gliding down a leaf or a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, vine-like wire work becomes a three-dimensional line drawing that captures transitory moments to preserve them in timeless jewelry pieces.  The subjective relationship between my work and the body is part of this dichotomy, and jewelry is the medium to present my perspective to the wearer.”
