The Design

About Inorganic Mineral Installationskunst

Inspireret af dybe følelser over for natur og oplevelse som arkitekt, fokuserer Lee Chi på skabelsen af unikke botaniske kunstinstallationer. Ved at reflektere over kunstens art og undersøge kreative teknikker omdanner Lee livsbegivenheder til formaliserede kunstværker. Temaet for denne serie af værker er at undersøge materialernes art og hvordan materialer kan rekonstrueres af det æstetiske system og et nyt perspektiv. Lee mener også, at omdefinering og genopbygning af planter og andre kunstige materialer kan få det naturlige landskab til at have en følelsesmæssig indflydelse på mennesker.

Design Challenge
The most challenging part of this research is to deconstruct the landscape and texture in Taiwan's cities and then from which let the artworks demonstrate the spiritual images of the environment and the connection between different material compositions. The series of works looks for permanent installations in space that link those images while signifying the necessary contingency measures for particular places with different environmental conditions.
Research
This series of works explores the way to make the non-recyclables produced non-unidirectional value under the economic system. It carries out experiments on its development potentials and various techniques of the manufacturing process based on the nature of materials. Therefore, the inorganic waste can be recycled and remade as mixed media for artworks.
Inspiration
Inorganic substances, as recognizable compounds, have become the primary environmental condition for people in cities to rely on. Based on Taiwan's history, it is understandable to see a delicate balance between the social class and quality in cities. However, Lee Chi believes that the actual outline of environments would only emerge if we exclude the knowledge we get from all cultures and civilizations, he sheds light on the relationship between his artworks and space where they settle.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2019 in Taipei and finished in March 2019 in Taipei.
Artwork was exhibited in Botaniplan Von Lee Chi studio during May 23 to June 6, 2019. And also artwork gallery BOUNTIFUL JOURNEY in Taipei during September 23 to 28, 2019.
Operation Flow
This installation is intended to be displayed statically.
