About Hitobito Enstalasyon Atistik

Hitobito se yon enstalasyon atistik ki te kreye pou fèt lantèn ki te fèt nan Vil Taipei an 2023. Estrikti a pran enspirasyon nan karaktè chinwa ki reprezante yon moun, ki fòme pa de manm k ap sipòte youn lòt. De ti antre fizyone pou vin fòme yon pi gwo espas, kote yon pwojektè nan sant lan pwojte grafik animasyon sou tè a. Chas tiyo asye ki pliye alamen an kouvri ak bwa banbou ki gen lajè yon santimèt, sa ki konekte metòd trese Azyatik tradisyonèl la ak yon estrikti endistriyèl.
