About Dance Anatomy दागिन्यांचो संग्रह

डान्स ॲनाटॉमी हो समकालीन नृत्यांतल्यान प्रेरणा घेतिल्लो दागिन्यांचो संग्रह. दोन रंगांनी तयार केल्ल्यो ह्यो तीन वस्तू बायोनिक रेषा आनी आकारां वरवीं मनशाच्या कुडीचो नवो अर्थ लावतात. नाचाच्यो स्थिर स्थिती अभ्यासल्यो आनी स्नायूंचो ताण, विसव आनी ताणप हांचें सोंपे ग्राफिक भाशेंत रुपांतर केलें. हे आकार नायलॉनांत 3D प्रिंट केल्यात, जाका लागून ह्यो कलाकृती लवचीक आनी लुकसाणाक तिगून उरपी जातात. तीन वस्तूं मदल्यो दोन कानांतले वा गळ्यांतले दागिने म्हूण घालूं येतात, कारण रुप्याची कानांतली तार लेस वा साखळे वरवीं बदलूं येता.

Unique Properties
The Dance Anatomy collection represents a reinterpretation of the human body. The lines and shapes look bionic and could remind any other organic creatures. They are 3D-printed in nylon which makes them flexible and damage-resistant. 2 objects can be worn as earrings or pendants after simple replacement of the earwire with a lace or chain.
Dimensions & Packaging
Object 1: H - 10 cm W - 5 cm D - 1.5 cm
Object 2: H - 10 cm W - 4.3 cm D - 1.5 cm
Object 3: H - 4 cm W - 7.2 cm D - 1.5 cm

Production Technology
3D-modelling, 3D printing in nylon (polyamide). Silver earwire, textile lace.
The design was visualized in Rhinoceros, using Tsplines plugin.
Design Challenge
The hardest part of the research lied in the detection of the right principle that would allow transferring a dancer position into graphic language. The author studied different aspects of dancing, namely the geometry of different dance positions, the cinesphere of a dancing person but these principles did not lead to a necessary esthetic result. In the end the research of the muscles behavior allowed to achieve the right result.
Secondly, it was hard to create the 3D models of the objects as they consist of many lines that could not intersect.
Research
The objective of the research was to analyze the processes occurring in the body of a dancer and to choose a principle that would allow translating them into graphic language and into real objects. The designer took pictures of dancers in captured dance positions and analyzed muscle tension and stretching in different parts of their bodies. In order to detect the state of muscles the author consulted the anatomy book and a former dancer. The designer used a solid color for those muscles that were keeping balance and were the most tense, the waved lines - for muscles being more relaxed and straight lines - in order to show the stretched parts.
Inspiration
The Dance Anatomy collection was inspired by contemporary dance. In this work I studied the fixed positions of dancers and the processes existing in their bodies. For example, some muscles are tense and some are relaxed, others are stretched. I have translated these processes into the simplified graphic language and came up with the forms and silhouettes that further became wearable objects (earrings, pendants, rings).
Project Duration
The project started in April 2019 in Moscow and finished in the end of June 2019 in Moscow. It was exhibited in Zveno jewelry shop and gallery.
Operation Flow
There are 3 objects in this collection, represented in 2 colors. The 2 of 3 can be worn as earrings or pendants. The leather lace or silver ear fixture can be easily inserted and removed when needed.
