作品闡述

《睿尋》是一個為本屆威尼斯雙年展創(chuàng)作的基于地理位置的應用程序作品，觀眾可以在手機上下載藝術家開發(fā)的應用程序，在威尼斯水城里搜尋并體驗藝術家“移植”在當?shù)貥蛄荷系膩碜灾袊臉蛄骸?/p>

《睿尋》通過關聯(lián)來自兩地的形態(tài)類似的橋梁，既展現(xiàn)了兩個文明之間的相通性，又呈現(xiàn)了兩個地域之間的差異性；作為系列作品之一，《有趣的世界》也是一個關于連接的作品，和《睿尋》不同的是，它試圖連接的是一個更加廣闊的社會場域。

作為對“愿你生活在有趣的時代”主題的回應，藝術家設計了一套社會化建造游戲來連接來自世界各地的參與者，在這個虛擬的三維世界里，參與者可以使用藝術家提供的大量回收自現(xiàn)實世界的三維模型來建造一個“有趣的世界”，也可以通過“橋”的連接來形成與其它“世界”的聯(lián)通與互動。“橋”可以幫助人們跨越障礙，實現(xiàn)資源共享或建造協(xié)作，但是“橋”也可能引發(fā)無法預計的、令人不適的介入。

在這里“橋”不僅是一個建造要素，還是一個具有隱喻性的社會化工具。這個作品也可以被看作是一個社會化實驗，它幫助我們測試、觀察并理解大眾在當下語境中復雜和多樣的世界觀。

“Re-Search” is a location-based application created for the La Biennale di Venezia 2019, which allows viewers to download an artist-developed application on their mobile devices. On this app, viewers can search and experience the“transplant” bridges from China in the Venice’s local bridges.

By connecting bridges from two lands through similarity of forms,“Re-Search” reveals the commonalities between the two civilizations, as well as the differences between the two regions. As one of the series works,"Interesting World" is also an artwork about connection, unlike“Re-Search”, it tries to connect a wider social field.

In response to the theme of“May You Live in Interesting Times,” the artist has designed a socialized construction game to connect worldwide participants. In this virtual three-dimensional world, participants can build their own“interesting world” by using the plenty of 3D models provided by artists that are recycled from the real world. The game mechanism also encourages players to connect and interact with other"worlds" through“bridges”. Building”bridges” can enables resource sharing and co-working, but another hand, it may create unexpected and uncomfortable intervention. 

In this game, the“bridge” is not only a construction element, but also a metaphorical socialization tool. This artwork can also be seen as a socialized experiment that helps us test, observe, and understand the complex and diverse world outlook of the public in the current context.
