First Place
“Kaleidoscope”
Sophia Hu
Las Vegas, NV, USA


Artist Statement: The wearable objects I create directly reflect my interest in astronomy and space exploration. The shapes, textures, materials and color palette found in the celestial environment are all elements that find their way into my work. Specific materials such as titanium, niobium and meteorite are chosen as they are often used to construct components to explore space, or naturally exist in space itself. In addition, softer and more malleable metals such as silver, gold and platinum are selected to complement the rigid qualities of the aforementioned materials. The intended result is to make one-of-a-kind wearable pieces that are functional, durable and evoke a sense of curiosity. Read More
