Buggle centers on nine symbolic energies, transforming beetle forms into wearable talismans. Each piece is crafted in aluminum, shaped through pressing and forging to create refined surface textures that reveal the metal’s varied surface qualities. Through anodizing and dyeing, an industrial process is reinterpreted into a layered language of color, giving each beetle a distinct visual identity. Rune-like symbols inspired by Taiwanese Zhuyin (Bopomofo) are incorporated into the designs as marks of energy, creating a sense of mystery that exists between legibility and abstraction. By bringing together material, craftsmanship, and symbolic meaning, Buggle presents accessories that are both decorative and meaningful, exploring the diverse possibilities of aluminum in contemporary adornment.

WATCHING THE EARTH

Department Of Multimedia & Animation, Tainan University of Technology

In his final moments, the protagonist gazes at the moon, regretting he never saw the Earth as a whole. After death, he becomes a soul, able to fly freely yet trapped in loneliness until he meets another soul. Together, they journey through space and reach the moon, where they discover many souls who share the same longing to see their home from afar. In this world, death is not the end—souls retain their identity and form, and once freed from Earth’s limits, can travel the universe, as the protagonist transforms from human into a truly free being.
