About Echoes Escultura

Echo se centra en la imatge de les ones expansives, utilitzant l'alta reflectivitat de l'acer inoxidable polit per capturar les llums i els colors canviants del seu entorn. Mentre la llum natural envolta l'escultura, aquesta revela reflexos en constant evolució que s'ondolen cap a fora com ones de so i memòria. La forma, que evoca una gota congelada en el temps, encarna tant la quietud com el moviment—un moment on l'energia es condensa i després s'irradia novament cap a fora. A través del joc de llum i ombra, l'obra transmet el ritme de la vida i la ressonància de l'esperit.

Unique Properties
I get my inspirations from life and nature. I also like to express my viewpoint through simple stuff.
I like to explore the potential of materials and techniques.A lot of ordinary materials, actually have a soul to me. I will transform them into a valuable new life through my magical hands and creative ideas. I hope my works carry the message of treasuring all earth resources and carry the concept of sustainable growth.

Design Challenge
The biggest challenge is to express a concept from a spiritual level via an abstract approach. It’s critical to choose the right materials to clearly express the inner feelings as materials speak different languages when it comes to art creation. In so doing, the audience can relate to the creation.

Another challenge is to combine stainless steel and glass. After a number of trial and error due to their nature in production, I finally found a way to piece them together in a natural way.
Research
I chose to use mirrored stainless steel and glass to interpret the image of water.
Because these two materials can be as clear and bright as water in the sun and the environment.
The water drops and rebounds in a moment of high and low undulations, symbolizing the vision of people working hard to build a beautiful world in different positions.
Inspiration
Based on the concept of “water”,
Water drops falling on water surface, create concentric circles of ripples, spreading gently outwards. The recoil from the vitality of this flowing force breaks the limits of space, just as when an actor unites his intellectual vitality with physical energy; gentle on some occasions violent on others; water displays scene after breathtaking scene, riveting to behold, and continuously re-enacted throughout the world。
Project Duration
This work was created in 2014 in Taiwan and finished in October 2015. It was exhibited in The 26th UBE Biennale at the UBE tokiwa Museum in Japan。
Operation Flow
The biggest challenge is to express a concept from a spiritual level via an abstract approach. It’s critical to choose the right materials to clearly express the inner feelings as materials speak different languages when it comes to art creation.
