小金魚  Little Goldfish

小金魚是人們孩提時可愛的記憶。水池裡自由自在游著的小金魚,金色麟光映襯水面瀲灩的漣漪,在陽光水色的波光粼粼中,總是帶給人們賞心悅目的愉悅心境。

金魚的「魚」發音和「餘」及「玉」相諧,因此金魚有「金玉滿堂」、「年年有餘」的吉祥寓意。同時金魚也象徵美好、幸福、和平及富有,因此富貴人家經常以飼養金魚作為彰顯尊貴的表徵。而莊子也有以魚和水來借喻:回歸自然、逍遙自由的「相忘江湖」寓言。

「如魚得水」的魚水交融活潑動態為造形主體,輔以新藝術風格的柔美曲線來強化美感,使造形整體姿態在旋轉向上、步步高升的同時,還能展現出欣欣向榮、金玉滿堂的吉慶風采。

Little goldfish are cute memories from people’s childhood. The little goldfish swimming freely in the pool, the golden light reflecting the ripples on the water, and the sparkling water color of the sunlight, always bring people a pleasing and joyful state of mind.

The pronunciation of the word “fish” in Mandarin is consistent with the words “surplus” and “jade”, so goldfish has the auspicious meaning of “full of gold and jade” and “abundance every year”. At the same time, goldfish also symbolizes beauty, happiness, peace and wealth, so wealthy people often raise goldfish as a symbol of their nobility. Zhuangzi also used fish and water as metaphors: the fable of “forgetting each other in the rivers and lakes” (the world) of returning to nature and being free.

“Like a fish in water”, the lively and dynamic fusion of fish and water is the main body of the shape, supplemented by the soft curves of the Art Nouveau style to enhance the beauty. While the overall posture of the shape rotates upward and rises step by step, it can also show a prosperous and auspicious style full of gold and jade.
