Cheng creates functional silverware and jewellery ranging from textured rings, earrings and bangles to unusual shaped dishes and beakers. Inherited from her Chinese culture and upbringing, she is inspired by the ideas and thoughts that “everything has a life, which should to be cherished and respected”. Her artwork incorporates forms from natural life elements, such as cells and can be described as ‘living forms’, as they look as if they have grown as a result of symbiosis. Chasing and repoussé (an incised and relief process) are traditional techniques commonly used in her work that adds a tactile quality.
