Motion & Balance
紡織品能以一種動態的方式與人互動嗎？
Does textiles can interact with people in a kinetic way?
人與自然應該是什麼關係？這個問題已經被問了幾個世紀。許多古代哲學認識到人與自然不可分離。我們是相互依存的，人與自然應該處於動態的平衡之中。但是平衡是什麼呢？
平衡不是靜態的，絕對的，相對相對的，動態的。它會在一定範圍或一定程度上上下波動。這只是一個令人滿意的運動，這很難說，但當你在其中，你會 感覺到它。在這個項目中，我試圖挑戰紡織品是否能以一種動力學的方式與人互動？
What relationship should there be between humans and nature? This question has been asked for centuries. Many ancient philosophies recognized that humans and nature can not be separate. We are interdependent, humans and nature should be in a dynamic balance. But what is the balance?
The balance is not static and absolute, it is relative and dynamic. It keeps moving up and down in a certain range or certain degree. It’s like a satisfying motion which is hard to say but when you are in it you will feel it. In this project, I’m trying to challenge whether textiles can interact with people in a kinetic way?
張思嘉(Sica) ， 2020年畢業於英國皇家藝術學院Royal College Of Art - Textile Design Mixed Media。她擅長探索與研究常規材質的肌理與傳統面料設計技法結合，為紡織品設計帶來新的更多可能性。
Motion & balance 這一系列作品，靈感來源自思嘉對自然的觀察和學習，並從中引發思考，她指出：人與自然的關係是什麼？這個問題已經被問了幾個世紀。古今中外的哲學家都有一些共同的觀點，人與自然應該是不可分割的、相互依存的。人與自然應該處於動態的平衡的狀態之中。但是平衡是什麼呢? 是天平？是圓？是均衡？是靜止的穩定狀態？
Sijia Zhang(Sica) graduated from the Royal College of Art Textile Design Mixed Media in 2020. She is good at exploring and studying the combination of the texture of materials and traditional textile design techniques, bringing new possibilities to textile design.
The series of works of Motion&balance are inspired by Sica’s observation and learning of nature. She raises the question: what is the relationship between man and nature? This question has been asked for centuries. Many ancient philosophies recognized that humans and nature can not be separate. We are interdependent, humans and nature should be in a dynamic balance. But what is the balance? Is it round? Is the scale? It's a still state?

思嘉認為textile design應該是對材質、肌理與結構的理解和設計，不僅僅局限在面料上，生活中的材質均可加以利用，它可以是飾品、雕塑、甚至是建築。Textile design的魅力也在於如何使十分尋常的材料通過肌理、色彩、與質感的變化，產生新的可能，帶來更高的價值。
Sica believed that textile design should be an understanding and designing of material, texture, and structure.
The textile design could be utilized not only in fabric but also in life. It could be jewellery, sculpture, or even architecture. The charm of Textile design also lies in how to make common materials produce new possibilities and bring higher value through the changes of texture, colour, and structure.
思嘉Sica 通過調研得到平衡不是靜態的、絕對的，而是相對的和動態的。‘平衡’是會在一定範圍或一定程度上上下波動。就像一個讓人感到舒適的運動狀態，這很難用語言表達出來，但當你身在其中，便會感覺到它。她從結構和肌理兩方面著手，嘗試將這種平衡狀態展示出來，試圖挑戰紡織品是否能將這種動態平衡的感受傳遞給觀眾。
Through investigation, Sica found that the balance was not static or absolute, it is relative and dynamic. It keeps moving up and down in a certain range or certain degree. It’s like a satisfying motion which is hard to say but when you are in it you will feel it. In this project, Sica starts from the two aspects of structure and texture, trying to show this state of balance, trying to challenge whether textiles can convey this feeling of dynamic balance to the audience.
Structure experimenting
思嘉她從自然中的平衡入手，將自然中給人以平衡感受的運動用視頻記錄下來，並通過3d抽象動畫的形式呈現出來，同時思考如何用現實生活中的材質將其實現。思嘉從平面插畫的軌跡入手，用立體編織的方法進行呈現，同時測試用不同媒介在立體編織內流動時產生的細節變化，進一步探索紡織品與人互動的可能性。
Starting from the balance in nature, Sica recorded the balanced movement in nature with video and presented it in the form of 3D abstract animation. At the same time, she thought about how to realize it with materials in real life. Starting from the track of graphic illustration, Sica presents it through three-dimensional weaving.
Meanwhile, she tests the changes
in details generated by the flow of different media in three-dimensional
weaving. To further explore the possibility of the interaction between textiles
and people.

在結構方面嘗試利用結構去表現這種上下起伏的運動狀態。利用鐳射切割的工藝通過結構使得壓克力板具有彈性的潛能。在此基礎上思嘉嘗試將結構與編織技法結合，不僅從二維方面去拓展圖案的變化，同時在三維的空間內探索結構的變化。
壓克力板與紗線的反向運動，使得在這個空間中的肌理與結構都在各自的方向不斷的發生改變，循環往復的上下起伏。探索一種動態平衡的概念。
In terms of structure, try to use the structure to express the motion state of ups and downs. Using the laser cutting process, the acrylic plate has the potential of elasticity through the structure. On this basis, Sica tries to combine the acrylic structure and weaving techniques, in the process of movement, not only expanding the pattern changes in a two-dimensional structure but also exploring the structure changes in the three-dimensional space.
The reverse movement of acrylic and yarn makes the texture and structure in this space constantly change in their respective directions, and fluctuate up and down repeatedly. Explore the concept of dynamic balance.
