Thick as Thieves
Mengying Sun, Thick as Thieves- 2020,Glass
Intimacy is the closest and most personal connection between people, yet gaps still exist, even in the most intimate relationships. These gaps represent unique marks between couples, and the most intimate relationships share a space that is intangible, precious, exclusive, and vulnerable. The end of an intimate relationship also means the collapse of this space. Only in intimacy does this space truly exist. The gaps in intimacy change over time, like gems that grow more beautiful with age.
To speak of intimacy is to speak through the body of a lover.
FLOW
Mengying Sun, FLOW,2021,Nylon, magnet, iron, 925 silver.
In the past, when faced with anxiety and stress, I turned to meditation. In those moments of stillness, my worries faded, and I entered a state of spiritual unity. Flow occurs when we connect with nature's beauty, engage in activities we love, or simply meditate—this is the essence of stillness.
Jewelry should bring us back to the present moment.
This is the beauty of flow—a path to true self-awareness.
Sweet Devil - Lollipop
Mengying Sun, Sweet Devil, 2023,Sugar, sterling silver, high-temperature enamel.
People's languages differ, and sometimes words can't fully express what you feel. It's like sugar in your mouth—when you're with someone or something you care about, you're more likely to argue. The words you can't say, because you care so much, turn into sweet anger in your mind. If they're upset about this, give them this sweet, wicked lollipop.
The perfect gift for your angry lover.
No Jewelry
Mengying Sun, No Jewelry, 2023,Gold.
My entire life revolves around jewelry—creating it, designing it for clients, and constantly pushing myself to learn and explore more. People pour endless emotion into jewelry, investing vast amounts of time, energy, and money to create it. As a jewelry artist, I dedicate everything I have to perfecting each piece, embracing the endless challenges that come with it. When I worked at Masieraad, I faced a series of obstacles in the production process, each one more painful than the last.
So, why jewelry? no "jewelry"
