Anne Wu is a jewelry artist from China with over a decade of experience in high-end commercial jewelry. 

Her recent works investigate the transformative potential of metal through digital interventions. Wu regards digital technologies not merely as practical instruments but as conceptual agents that critically interrogate and expand the boundaries of traditional craft.

Firmly anchored in the physical world, Wu employs precise 3D scanning to capture intricate organic textures—such as the subtle ridges of skin, the ephemeral fragility of petals, and the silent erosions of time. These transient forms are converted into digital data, undergoing simulation, deconstruction, and reconstruction in the virtual realm. 

Eventually, these digitally-mediated forms return to the physical domain through meticulous fabrication processes, manifesting an entirely new tactile vocabulary.

In Wu’s creations, technology is not an end but a transformative medium—a crucible that reshapes emotions, memories, and identities.

Metal Trilogy


Part I
Simulation

Anodised aluminium, titanium, 18K gold, natural Paraíba tourmaline, white sapphires.








Bridging traditional craftsmanship with digital exploration, Simulation captures the intricate structures of nature through high-precision 3D scanning and parametric modeling. Organic textures—skin ridges, the fragility of petals, the silent erosion of time—are transformed into lightweight, wearable forms using anodised aluminium and titanium.

These materials, combined with 18K gold and natural gemstones, challenge the conventions of fine jewellery, infusing it with a renewed sense of identity and materiality.




Part II
Crystal Organic Growth

18K gold, natural Paraíba tourmaline, white sapphires.


Inspired by the generative processes of nature, Crystal Organic Growth explores the transformation of digital simulations into tangible jewellery. Using parametric modeling, modular casting, and meticulous soldering, organic growth patterns emerge from the digital domain and are reborn in 18K gold and precious stones.

The dialogue between the virtual and the physical invites the viewer to contemplate the interplay of natural evolution and technological craftsmanship.

Part III 
Simulacra

18K gold, natural gemstones, anodised metals.
Simulacra delves into the subconscious projections of digital reconstruction, transforming familiar organic elements into uncanny compositions. Through 3D scanning, digital recomposition, and algorithmic processes, the work challenges perceptions of authenticity and meaning.

By combining 18K gold, natural gemstones, and anodised metals, the series invites reflection on the evolving language of adornment in the digital age.


Breathing Life 
into the Forgotten

Part I 
Brooch：Ling Zhi

Aluminium (anodised), Silver


The aluminium in Coke cans is made in very different colours and textures because it is not pure.
In Chinese culture, Lingzhi is a symbol of immortality, showcasing a remarkable vitality by thriving even in harsh environments. It is depicted as a herbal remedy used by immortals.
