Description
In Buddhism, they use a Sanskrit word “ksana” to measure time, which is a tiny unit of time. Such a small amount of time that all kinds of things happen eludes our conscious awareness. And this amount of time is approximately one seventy-fifth of a second, i.e. 0.013s. In each 0.013 second (= ksana), “Born, Live, Die” loop cycles keep recurring in human consciousness in one Ksana = 0.013 second.
In this exhibition, I am trying to investigate the INFLUENCE of 0.013 second to the infinite life cycle with my new art installation at Floating Projects. “影響” is both the Japanese and Chinese title. (“Influence” in English). It derived from the concept of “Shadow follows object; echo replies to sound”, this is the law of nature. Objects exert influences on each other and produce infinite spontaneous changes, which reflect the nature of the recurring life cycle of “Born, Live, Die”.
While you are viewing my artwork, your shadow is interacting with the shadow of my artwork. At the same time, they are influencing each other creating a new form of interaction creating influences…………..
This is the experience I hope you can explore and be conscious of in your life.
Let’s enjoy and play with the shadow.
