About Infinite Wave Installacion d'Esclaratge
Onda Infinida es una concepcion que materializa los fluxes d'aiga e la variacion del temps al Pòrt de Yuejin de Tainan, Taiwan. L'installacion pren d'aparéncias variadas mentre lo jorn se transforma en nuèch, ont la lum artificiala e naturala se cròtzan, guidant los espectators a percebre los cambiaments tant dins l'espaci coma dins lo temps. Mentre la lum de luna emerge lentament, de rais cremesins que rapèlan lo sang pernean l'òbra, permetent als contorns de devenir clars. Al cròs de la nuèch, quand la lum artificiala se difusa a travèrs l'installacion, las ondas de lum multidimensionalas s'entrelissan tornamai dins l'espaci.

- Unique Properties
- Infinite Wave takes on different appearances as day transitions into night, where artificial and natural light interact, guiding viewers to perceive the changes in space and time. As moonlight slowly emerges, crimson rays reminiscent of blood gradually permeate the entire installation, sharpening its contours from blur to clarity. By the dead of night, as artificial light spreads across the installation, multidimensional light waves intertwine once again in space.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 4,000mm x Depth 4,200mm x Height 2,500mm

- Production Technology
- This artwork is produced through computational design tools, laser cutting machines, and optical fibers materials.
- Design Challenge
- In this project, artist Cheng Chao Lin uses the optical fibers as the main structure. For the first time, the light becomes attachable in the pavilion, creating the expression of lighting as well as connecting the whole structure. Based on the geometric research, three-dimensional laser cutting technology is used to determine the orientation of each metal unit, ensuring precise angles and locations before the units are accurately assembled.
- Research
- The Infinite Wave is a lighting installation based on the Mobius strip folding structure. It focuses on visual changes in topology and explores the interactions between lines, surfaces, and volumes. The installation utilizes lines to maximize visual impact, and uses computational tools to calculate and assemble the structure. In addition, the design also seeks to further integrate the manufacturing technology in Taiwan by building a connection between art and local industry.
- Inspiration
- The shape of Infinite Wave concretes the flows of water and the variation of time in the Yuejin Port of Tainan, Taiwan. The lighting installation is crafted from interwoven optical fibers, transforming light from a physical phenomenon into a tangible structure. In the artwork, light serves simultaneously as a medium for recording time and as building material. Each optical fiber, varying in length, delineates the diffusion range of light and captures its trajectory through inherent vectors.
- Project Duration
- The artwork was exhibited from January 2024 to March 2024 in Tainan, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- In the depths of the night, red beams of light traverse the void, resembling a guiding light slowly revealing the transformation of the earth. As wanders immerse themselves in this infinite geometric illusion, multidimensional light waves intertwine in space, guiding them in countless directions while simultaneously causing them to gradually lose their way. Through continuous exploration, consciousness will eventually return from blur to clarity.
