About Ceramics Extension Pemasangan Seni
Pemasangannya dibentuk oleh patung seramik buatan tangan tradisional dan patung plastik bercetak 3D. Seni dan reka bentuk berusaha menyampaikan perasaan yang kuat kepada penonton bahawa setiap objek, semua orang, semuanya diperluas tanpa batas. Dengan adanya arca, ia mengkomunikasikan sebahagian objek yang mereka lihat adalah nyata, tetapi objek lain adalah pantulan oleh cermin, yang tidak nyata. Interaksi itu membuatkan orang berfikir bahawa mereka melangkah ke dunia fantasi yang diciptakan oleh mereka sendiri.

- Design Challenge
- The arrangement of the sculptures was one of the challenges in the design process. Some of the ceramics were too heavy to use ropes to hold and connect it with the roof. Therefore, most of the sculptures are remade and reprinted by the 3D printer, using lighter materials then sprayed by the glazed-look white color to the surface.
- Research
- The reflective material was the key to this design. Different materials combine with LED lights have different visual effects. Glass, Acrylic, and mirrors cannot demonstrate a good visual effect because of the reflection range are limited, as well as when the light is being reflected, the feeling wasn't satisfied. The installation took lots of tests in order to see if the fantasy feeling can be presented. The optimal result is shown in the final design, which is to use aluminum mirrors as the main materials.
- Inspiration
- The relationship between the virtual world and the real world generates the form of this installation design, as well as the traditional method of crafting versus what can be crafted with contemporary technologies. The development of civilization proceeds as time goes on. Therefore, the mirror reflection in the interior space of the installation shows the infinite possibility of what time can change. Technology allows humans to define what is real and what is virtual and all the connections.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2016 in Beijing and finished in 2017. It was exhibited in Beijing Today Art Museum in 2017.
- Operation Flow
- When the audiences step into the installation space, they will sense a feeling of visual infinity. The visual interaction generates a strong feeling to the audiences that every object, everyone, everything is being extended infinitely. With the presence of sculpture, it is communicating part of the objects they see are real, but the other objects are the reflection by the mirrors, which is unreal. The interaction makes people think that they are stepping into a fantasy world that is created by themselves.
