Trophy for Hasong Lee
The keywords of designer Hasong Lee's work are Symbolism, Formativeness, Sense Of Space, Architecture, and Visuality. She recently thought that the trophy was the best fit for all of this. Trophy enables as many people as possible to celebrate competition or figure or date and symbolize. Through this, she intends to escape the fixed limitations of the existing trophies, and to design the trophies as her formative objects with more diverse stories and new memorials and symbolism. LEE actively used Optical illusion, Anamorphosis, and Metalworking techniques in this project.

It is a trophy for French photographer Georges Rousse. Forms were made by imaging his stories and works. Based on this, I produced a trophy figure that is a three-dimensional impossible that showed the intended form and image at one point. I expressed the interior space that is his work in a structural form with a sense of space. Also if you look at the trophy from a point in time, you can see a two-dimensional circle with holes in different colors. It is an indirect message to rousse.
Anamorphosis, Memorial, Symbolism, Sculptures, Trophy
The form is produced through a computer 3D program. The metal plate is cut using a saw or a laser. It uses the technique of folding or soldering metal to fit the drawing. I use cupro-nickel and 925silver as materials. This is because when the form is finally completed and the body is colored through heat, the contrast between black and white can be seen. Then we can clearly see the picture of the form or surface I intended at a specific point in time of the finished work.
Usually, the visual expression of Anamorphosis is only seen in large spaces for us. This is because the larger the space, the more effective the visual expression. In order to show this through a small objet, I expressed it in three dimensions by combining the visual expression of IMPOSSIBLE FIGURE such as Penrose’s triangle as we know it. At one point, the three-dimensional sculpture of the trophy will show you impossible figure through Anamorphosis. That shape isn’t make sense.
The project started in Seoul in September 2017 and ended in late December 2017 in Seoul. First, the work was exhibited at the Gold Museum in New Taipei, Taiwan from June to October 2018. And secondly, before I graduated from the graduate school, this work was exhibited in the school gallery.
My work has a visual illusion of Anamorphosis. This seems to distort or distort the appearance of the object depicted in the picture from a normal point of view. However, when viewed from a specific location or angle specified by the artist, the distortion disappears and the figure in the picture appears normal. Viewers feel visually confused by observing these distortions. It also creates strong concentration in them, creates tension, and leads them to doubt their views.
This work is a trophy to commemorate the Georges Rousse, which gave me a lot of enlightenment in using visual expressions, giving me the direction of formative work with memoriality and symbolism. In the future, I will continue to explore and pioneer the technique of creating sculptures in which the external and visual moldings and the inner and memorial and symbolic meanings of each are harmonious. Research on making these sculptures will advance my trophies, ornaments, and various objets.
Among many techniques of metal crafting, there is a technique of digging a groove in a metal plate, folding it at a certain angle, and then soldering between them. I like geometric shapes and I naturally became interested in the technique and I used it to produce many works. During this process, the metal plates were folded in and out to create interesting shapes. At this point, I came up with the idea that I could see the shape I wanted from a certain angle. The three-dimensionally folded metal plated can show the planar shape I intended from only one angle, which gave me curiosity and curiosity, and gave me visual fun. With this expression of Anamorphosis, jewelry like a brooch was later vanished with lacquer on the shape of the angle I intended.
