Concept概念簡介

Stone by dripping

滴水積石

Tafoni is a collection of 3D sand-printed planters inspired by the cavities and irregular surfaces formed through the weathering and erosion of rocks. Drawing from these geological formations, the project translates naturally eroded textures into sculptural objects through digital fabrication. The layered structure of sand printing allows the forms to develop through successive deposits of material, creating a relationship between natural processes of erosion and artificial processes of accumulation. Rather than functioning as conventional watertight vases, Tafoni's porous sand-based structure allows air and moisture to pass through the material, giving the objects qualities closer to those of breathable planters. The project explores how these opposing mechanisms of erosion and accumulation can inform a new language of form-making. Tafoni / 滴石花器 是一系列以岩石風化與侵蝕所形成的孔洞、凹陷及不規則表面為靈感的砂材列印盆器。作品從自然界的地質形態出發，透過數位設計與積層製造，將岩石受到長時間侵蝕後的造形特徵轉化為具有雕塑感的日常物件。砂材列印透過材料逐層堆積形成物件，與自然界中岩石逐漸風化、侵蝕的過程形成對照。不同於一般可以盛水的花器，滴石花器保留了砂質材料的多孔特性，使空氣與水分得以穿透器壁，呈現更接近透氣盆器的材料性質。作品試圖從物質的消減與累積這兩種相反的作用中，探索新的造形生成方式。
