During winter 2021, after a day of freezing rain, icicles were hanging everywhere the next morning. It was so beautiful to Mavis that it kept appearing in her mind, and that is the inspiration. Mavis started with material explorations and found out that acrylic has the great transparency that she is looking for, which can be flexible, and also allows her to do engraving patterns. She used the laser cutting technique to cut out the template she designed for the earring, patterns were engraved at the same time. Then she heated up part of the acrylic which allows her to form the piece. She started the series with transparent acrylic, and colored acrylic was brought in to express the reflections from the sunlight, the sky.
