Juniper Tree

Mixed media installation
2019
iron pot/feather/resin/cloth/fur

The installation was inspired by <Grimms Märchen -The Juniper Tree>. The story has an element of horror, so dark lighting is used in the exhibition.

The exhibition begins with the sounds of birds and gunshots in the jungle, then, in the eerie sounds of cooking, the audience sits around the table for pre-meal prayers, with an air of mystery and eerie. The installation is set on a dining table, where a bowl of soup is served on silver cutlery. Feathers spread all over the table, feather soup in the pot.

The flame made of cloth and animal fur around the iron pot, hoping to show the three layers of people and animals from "blood - soup", "bone - iron pot" and "skin - fur and clothes" respectively: "three layers of skin", which also echoes the fairy tale.

混合材料装置
铁锅/羽毛/树脂/布料/动物皮毛

装置作品的灵感来自《格林童话-杜松树》<Grimms Märchen -The Juniper Tree>。故事带有一些恐怖因素,所以在展示时运用了较暗的灯光。

这个简短的展览开始于丛林的鸟叫声和枪声,在诡异的做饭声音中,观众围坐在桌子周围进行餐前祈祷,烘托神秘和诡异的气氛。装置摆放在餐桌上,一碗汤被盛在银制的餐具中。羽毛洒满整个桌面,锅里盛满羽毛的汤。

铁锅的周围是用衣服布料和动物皮毛做成的火焰,是希望分别从“血液—汤汁”/ “骨骼—铁锅”/“皮肤—皮毛和衣服”来展现人和动物的层次:”三层皮肤“,也和童话故事作呼应。

The best thing I thought is that everyone finds happiness on their own path
Approach happiness naturally

May you be the last of the three benches
