The collection “Trigger” from the Trace series by Youzhi Bi is a unique exploration of imperfection and personal narrative through material and wear. Created by meticulously perforating a thin gold surface to form delicate, dotted lines, the brooches are then folded and pinned between gold plates. This design invites interaction, as the perforated sections naturally evolve with use, encouraging the wearer to engage in a personal act of creation by tearing, folding, or otherwise altering the piece according to their individual aesthetic and emotional inclinations.
