Production Technology
To design this product, after researching the works of Pete Mondrian, first various and very different designs were drawn on paper, and after many modifications and changes, it was implemented in the appropriate software. The method of making this product is also simple and can be made by casting or even by hand. In this product, black gold and colored gems have been used. The gems used are: emerald for green, ruby for red, sapphire for blue, citrine for yellow and diamond for white.
Design Challenge
One of the main obstacles for the researcher-designer-lack of easy access (depending on the country of origin) to all the works of this precious artist has been. Also, most of the available resources for research in this field were in English, and therefore it took a long time to be able to prepare a good research and therefore an appropriate design.
Research
The research was applied and the method of data collection was the library. The main purpose of this study was to make the public more familiar with the works of Pete Mondrian and his utopia - the philosophy and purpose of his works; Because the goal and philosophy of his works was to establish a better world and in fact a utopia. The result of this research, which is the design of jewelry based on his works, can not only remind us of the importance of purposeful works of art; Rather, by balancing, one can reduce the evils of the world and create a more beautiful world for oneself and others.
Inspiration
This work is inspired by the abstract works of "Pete Mondrian". Because in his view, all the problems of humanity (war, injustice, suffering, poverty, etc.) originate in the imbalance between opposites in the world, and he tried to create a balance in composition, lines and colors in his works. With his works, he showed not only his dreams, but the dreams of the whole world; And no language is better for expressing wishes than the language of simplicity. Hence, his works have inspired my world.
Project Duration
The project started in February 2022 in Isfahan and finished in March 2022 in Isfahan. This project is one of the collection which designed jewelry based on famous abstract painting.
Operation Flow
This work can not only be aesthetically influential on the audience but also due to its inspiration from works of art, it can be a reminder of the countless values of art and works of art in life. On a closer look, it can point to the ideal world of Pete Mondrian and even all of us, where balance can solve the world's problems and give people a better world; The balance that can be seen in the works of Pete Mondrian and this work can encourage the audience to establish this balance.
