About Water Ripples Silla
El trabajo se basa en las ondas del agua y convierte la escena natural en una mecedora interactiva que le permite sentarse o acostarse en la silla como si el cuerpo se balanceara despreocupadamente junto con los movimientos de las ondas del agua. Su característica es la textura fluida de las ondas de agua. No importa en interiores o exteriores, especialmente donde hay luz, sus ondas de agua mostrarán luz natural y sombras a través del suelo. Es como una escultura ondulada con concepción artística cuando está en reposo; sin embargo, se convierte en un mueble fascinante cuando se produce una interacción.
