Evolution (2021)
Automobile charging devices, engines, vent pipes
260 x 215 x 60 cm

The installation Evolution plans to use televisions, circuit boards, engines and vent pipes to mimic traditional Chinese potted landscapes, their branches and stems. The industrialized artificial potted landscapes seem to come from the nature, but it artificially conveys one’s aspiration and interest. The engines detached from an old car, as well as the circuit boards and sockets from an electric car, are used to blur the boundary between physics and biology as their practical functions have been transformed into decorative ones. In the post-pandemic age when different parties turn to philosophical search for a new path, I hope that my work will be able to express the cultural awareness of Chinese people that cannot be ignored – poetic self-reflection and self-improvement. I combine such a sentiment with the collected industrial materials to create the images in my heart and to join in the evolution of new energy. In the dilemma of globalization, China has gradually and peacefully evolved to be the center of new world order. Lets join hands together!
