About the art
Artist statement
Inspired by Chinese ink calligraphy. The interaction between ink and rice paper creates dissolve effect from blackness to whiteness. The question has to be raised that what if we change the painting media, turn a 2 dimensional rice paper to 3 dimensional spacial object. The perspective of seeing ink painting will be distorted and transformed into a new experience.
In order to liberate fluid material(ink) in the process of forming space, we developed a new way of forming Fluid Formation. It is different from the traditional way of casting, aiming to explore the boundary of fluid form finding. Ink-fall Table is based on the concept of Fluid Formation, created by multi-gravity method and multi-color-fluid materials fusion. The constant collaboration between material and gravity elevates a new level in design and aesthetic language that does not only aim to produce spatial results but dissolve effects.
