About Hitobito Instalasi Seni

Hitobito adalah instalasi seni yang diciptakan untuk festival lampion yang diselenggarakan di Kota Taipei pada tahun 2023. Strukturnya mengambil inspirasi dari karakter Tionghoa untuk kata "orang", yang terbentuk dari dua elemen yang saling menopang. Dua pintu masuk kecil menyatu menjadi satu ruang yang lebih besar, di mana sebuah proyektor di bagian tengah memancarkan grafis bergerak ke permukaan tanah. Rangka pipa baja yang dilengkungkan secara manual dibungkus dengan bilah pasak bambu selebar satu sentimeter, menyatukan teknik tenun tradisional Asia dengan struktur industrial. Instalasi ini berukuran lebar 9,8 meter, dalam 7,8 meter, dan tinggi 3,5 meter.
