Om Cyborg Rainbow Smykker
Inspireret af filosoffer som Rosi Braidotti og Donna Haraway benytter dette projekt cyborg- og cyberpunk-elementer fra popkulturen til at skabe denne supersurrealistiske serie. Med en fleksibel anvendelse af industrielt fremstillede materialer er smykkerne i dette projekt fuldstændigt konstrueret af udskiftelige dele, som giver bærerne mulighed for at udskifte og endda redesigne smykkerne ved hjælp af alle disse ekstra "chips og stænger". Denne kollektion har til formål at skabe en kontekst, hvor bæreren kan opleve en fantasifuld posthuman fremtid og dermed bryde med den traditionelle opfattelse af køn og identitet.

- Unikke Egenskaber
- This project is a participatory piece which basic frames and interchangeable spare-parts are manufactured using industrial materials, like aluminum, acrylic, stainless steel. That allows the wearers to replace and even remake the jewellery using all those spare "chips and bars". In this process of self-controlled changing and overall infinity of possibilities, Dian intends to construct a context in which the wearer can, not only wear but can also participate and experience a fluid relationship between body, objects, and identity. It now a materialized imagination, it might be material experience in an expectable future.

- Designudfordring
- The main challenge in her project is to materialize cyborg and posthuman theories not only in the "object" that she designed but how it can create an ongoing and firsthand experience to her customers.
- Forskning
- Dian combined desktop research and practice as research in her project. Particularly, theories about Post-humanism and themes of science fiction and pop-culture were studied, then she embody her research enquiries in her design practice and the final product as a materialized exploration of cyborg theory that she researched.
- Inspiration
- Informed by philosophers like Rosi Braidotti and Donna Haraway, Dian developed a deep interest in approaching gender identity issues through the concepts of the post-humanism, cyborg, cyber-punk and science fictions in pop culture to construct the super surreal series to discuss the question of fluidity of gender and identity in post-human age.
- Projektvarighed
- The project started in April 2018 in London and finished in April 2019 in London, and was exhibited in Central Saint Martins in June 2019 and AN+ ART and Design Museum in March to June 2020.
- Driftsflow
- This series of jewellery uses interchangeable parts to create imaginations and experiences of cyber-organic science fiction.
