An Experimental Study Of Contemporary Wooden Jewelry Based On The Concept Of Digitization

With the rapid development of modern society and technology,digital design and manufacturing has not only occupied a significant place in the manufacturing industry,but also become one of the most popular design assistive means in the field of arts at present.Thanks to the intervention of digital technology,contemporary wood jewelry,as a branch of contemporary jewelry,has resulted in a transformation from manual to machine-operated production,from free and organic to rational laws of modelling.Besides,it features a certain level of contemporaneity and experiment.It reveals that the attribution of modeling features by an understanding of technology is particularly significant at a time with the interdisciplinary trend.Firstly,this paper sorts out the technical means of digitization,digital design,and digital manufacturing.Through empirical research,it has an in-depth understanding of the process and methods of applying these technical means to wood processing.Having selected a number of typical cases,the paper analyses it as a design thinking and assistive technology in its cross-sector integration with jewelry,perceives the presentation of physical and virtual jewelry brought about by the intersecting disciplinaries,and summarizes the diverse cross-sector development trends and features.Secondly,it focuses on the jewelry itself to explore the elaboration of the physical properties and artistic qualities of wood jewelry.Wood is one of the more commonly used creative materials in contemporary jewelry with its natural,rustic,and easily processed properties.Its high involvement in social life since ancient times has led to its evolving connotations and extensions,resulting in complex and different meanings for the aesthetic subject.As a result,contemporary wood jewelry,while having the characteristics of contemporary jewelry,is also influenced by the aesthetic emotional expression of the material.The creation of contemporary wood jewelry can be inspired by forms,experimented with materials,carried out by the use of patterns and colors,among others.Once again,a study method with cases is used to summaries and analyze the modeling characteristics of contemporary wood jewelry featuring the beauty of rational order,exquisite details,and sensual warmth under the concept of digitalization.Finally,through the experimental creative practice,theoretical knowledge is transformed into works which present contemporary wood jewelry in a digital concept.
