About Formosa Sapphire Tørklæde

Formosa Sapphire er et silketørklæde dekoreret med et mønster af Swinhoefasan, en fugleart, der kun findes i Taiwan. Designet er kendetegnet ved håndtegnede penselstrøg, fine linjetexturer og klare farver. Fuglen blev studeret ud fra fotografier og opslagsbøger og derefter tegnet i detaljer. Kunstværket blev konverteret til en vektorfil for at bevare de oprindelige strøg og farver og er påført silken ved digital tryk. Tørklædet måler 650 gange 650 millimeter. Hensigten er at introducere Taiwans hjemmehørende fuglearter for et bredere publikum og at støtte bevidstheden om fuglebeskyttelse.

Design Challenge
At first, all the sketches and paints are on paper, in order to print, the designer has to convert the original artworks into a vector image file. During the conversion process, adjustment work was time-consuming and challenging because the designer wanted to keep the original strokes and bright colors.
Research
Since Swinhoe's Pheasant is difficult to find, the designer observed the appearance of the animal through photographs and from the book Wild Bird of Taiwan, then drew the beautiful appearance of the animal delicately.
Inspiration
Swinhoe's Pheasant is a kind of endemic species in Taiwan. It is covered in feathers with blue color and its gestures are eye-catching and difficult to see. The designer was once lucky to see the Swinhoe's Pheasant in a mountain, and she was immediately impressed by the animal. She believes these birds should be introduced to the world. At the same time, people can also raise the awareness of endemic species birds conservation.
