About Hitobito Belysningsinstallation
Hitobito er en lysinstallation skabt til en lanternefestival afholdt i Taipei City i 2023. Strukturen er inspireret af det kinesiske tegn for menneske, dannet af to elementer, der støtter hinanden. To smalle indgange fører besøgende ind, hvor stierne smelter sammen til ét større rum. En projektor i centrum kaster en bevægelsesgrafik ned på gulvet. En manuelt bøjet stålrørsramme er malet hvid og beklædt med flettede bambusdyvler på en centimeters bredde. Installationen måler 9,8 meter i bredden, 7,8 meter i dybden og 3,5 meter i højden.
