How can we use a knitted structure to visualise the spaces around our body that we create through our movements?
我們如何使用編織結構來視覺化我們通過運動創造的身體周圍的空間 ?
Body movement 是榕笛 Rongdi Ma 織品設計師於2020 英國皇家藝術學院 Royal College of Art 紡織設計研究所 MA Textiles的畢業作品。這是榕笛 Rongdi Ma 透過探索重新思考人體，將人體運動結構作為媒介和靈感來設計交互式可穿戴的紡織品。通過學習人體運動規律和表演藝術，更深入的探索人體的韻律和形態。
Rongdi Ma is a knitwear designer with an academic background in fashion and textile design. She has gained significant experience in design and marketing in the fashion industry while working with multiple fashion brands.
Her projects draw on a wide range of fields, including philosophy, religion, culture, and information experience. Her experimentation with colours and materials plays an important role in both her thought and design processes. Her current work explores the possibility of experimental knitting through creative projects and technical innovation.
作品系列靈感來源於包豪斯藝術 Bauhaus Art 家奧斯卡· 施萊默Oskar Schlemmer 的著名實驗芭蕾舞劇中對於人體運動軌蹟的研究。依據人體的運動原理，將針織結構的靈活性與自我的實驗性運動軌跡相結合，依據軟硬材料的嘗試和應用將面料軟雕塑化，用針織面料作為媒介創造出視覺捕捉不到的肢體運動軌跡。
該項目的概念是重新思考人體，將人體運動結構作為媒介和靈感來設計交互式可穿戴的紡織品。通過學習人體運動規律和表演藝術，更深入的探索人體的韻律和形態。作為實驗針織面料設計，旨在將其應用於時裝設計系列中。在創作過程中，通過研究針織的材料和纖維特徵，將傳統手工技法與工業技術相結合探索更多的設計可能性。此外，該項目還探討了身體運動如何構成針織的組成模式，以及針織結構如何影響我們的身體運動，將人體運動所創造的空間通過織物的運動而形象化。
The concept of this project is to rethink the human body as a medium that sparks the creation of interactive and wearable textiles inspired by various body movements. By learning the principles of movement regulation and observing dance performances, the volume of the body can be further explored. The inspiration comes from various body movements, and the spaces created by these body movements are visualised through the movement of fabrics.
The project is related to body and fashion in context, which aims to be applied to a fashion collection inspired by various dance performances and costumes. The project aims to challenge the design possibilities of knitted textile and maximise the flexibility of knitting by ‘learning through making’ approaches. Additionally, the project explores how body movements could structure the knitting form, and how the knit structure could influence our body movements.
在實踐過程當中，榕笛 Rongdi Ma 她致力於從探索針織的特性出發，利用軟硬材料的實驗來突出針織的可塑性和靈活的特徵，同時將不同材料結合尋求設計的平衡點。如利用鐵絲，軟管和魚骨來做支撐，結合彈力纖維和針織羅紋技巧將軟硬材料的對比最大化。在設計針織結構的同時，利用立體人台來做身體比例和結構上的嘗試。
在顏色的選擇和使用中，她參考了舞台服裝色彩搭配規則，以及對戲服在舞台光線和環境的影響進行了研究和學習，引入了紅色的元素，帶來強烈的視覺衝擊力；同時也參考了顏色的符號學，添加米黃色作為“簡化/極簡” "Simplified/Minimalist"的象徵，與此系列靈感中包豪斯藝術家康定斯基Kandinsky 的“simplicity and minimizing subject matter”的理論學說相結合。整體配色參考了互補色和對比色的搭配邏輯，希望通過其顏色的和諧度體現身體運動的協調性，為作品整體增添融合感。
榕笛 Rongdi Ma 希望通過這個實驗性針織系列開拓人們對與針織紡織品可能性的認知，擴大其應用面和發展空間來實現更多的新穎設計。從產品到服裝，從工藝到科技，她將這個系列的針織設計融入於服裝設計中，為未來針織服裝領域帶來了新的想法和可能。將實驗性想法用織物作為媒介進行表達，並帶給觀眾靈感與共鳴，是她作為一名針織設計師的設計理念和哲學。
Rongdi Ma hopes to expand people's awareness of the possibilities of knitted textiles and expand its application and development space through this experimental knit series to achieve more innovative designs. From products to clothing, from technology to technology, she integrated the knitting design of this series into clothing design, bringing new ideas and possibilities for the future field of knitting clothing. It is her design philosophy and philosophy as a knitting designer to express experimental ideas with fabric as the medium and to bring inspiration and resonance to the audience.
