Striped ring | sterling silver, Keumboo 2021 Oblique ring | sterling silver, Keumboo 2021

A ring forms a small space with our fingers. I try to focus on the structure and embody it in the following two ways. Layers. The lines of the ring are connected from beginning to end and form their shape. The repeated lines and stripes make you feel the rhythm and the negative space created due to the overlapped lines emerges as the volume. Combine. The ring is represented in a combination of the ring focusing on its functions and a geometrical shape. It takes note of hiding, revealing, and different shapes according to which way you look at it.
