Paris and Beijing-based artist –designer Lin Ziliang (Ray Sorlentyr)— A millennial Chinese Artist born in the 1990s—founded his eponymous studio, Atelier Ray Sorlentyr, in 2015. Drawing on Norse mythology as a constant wellspring, he brings myths and imagination into tangible form through Fashion and Art Jewellery.

“The Viking soul never ceases to explore unknown, endless worlds. Their fearlessness and courages inspire me. Life is a great journey; for adventurers who care about new ideas, wonders, and freedom, creation is an endless road. I want to make works that embody my ideas and craft. I hope these vivid, inventive objects prompt audiences to go and discover more—into their inner worlds and the countless imaginations within. Across challenges and through creation, we find the glory of our journey and our true selves.”Once he said.

He translates these visions into reality through distinctive Art Jewellery and Designs. As he puts it: “Norse mythology and the epic poems buried in time are my abiding dream—so too is life itself.” In his hands, fantasy becomes form, offering a glimpse into a timeless mythic universe.

He marries classical sculpture, garment craft, and jewellery techniques with modern technology, weaving rare and novel materials and processes into his practice to produce exquisite, arresting artworks.

Ray’s singular voice has earned acclaim in Europe and Asia; his works are sought after by fashion editors and celebrities alike. Communicative and resonant, his practice has brought fresh energy to contemporary art and jewellery, inspiring fellow artists and designers. Turning dreams into durable, touchable objects aligns with jewellery’s enduring pursuit of meaning—and of eternity.
