Huang Shijie, a Taiwanese artist living in the United States, exhibited the Organic Concept series at the Renaissance Court of the Worcester Art Museum in Massachusetts. Several fans were used to blow up giant insect-shaped plastic film sculptures that extended from the stairs to Between the beams and pillars, they are constantly changing with the faint stirring of the wind, as if they are alive.
This is an installation art he created for the exhibition "Reusable Universes: Shih Chieh Huang" at the museum.
Over the past fifteen years, Huang Shijies plastic sculptures have been exhibited in gardens, driveways, shopping malls and other places. He is accustomed to transforming common materials into unique and complex shapes that whir in the wind. Change the volume or size to inspire peoples imagination. And this wriggling worm actually looks a bit like a soft slide or a winding small intestine when viewed from another angle. Due to the different directions of peoples imagination, the originally dull museum suddenly becomes... Gotta be interesting.
Even Huang Shijie admits that sometimes when he looks at his own works, he intuitively only thinks that they are garbage bags controlled and moved by fans, but sometimes, he feels that they are cells, hearts, Lungs or sea creatures. He does not want to directly tell the audience what it is, or how to appreciate his work, so as not to restrict the audiences imagination.
This is Huang Shijies most ambitious work so far. It uses more than a hundred parts in total. By disassembling, reassembling, and transforming various electronic parts he used, he created an amazing kinetic art installation, combined with a light-emitting device. , rich visual effects. Huang Shijie hopes that through his "low-tech" works, he can inspire the curiosity of the audience.
