Multi-functional water pipe furniture

Today, the balance between organisms and artifacts has reached a critical point. According to a paper published online in Nature on December 9, 2020 (Global human-made mass exceeds all living biomass), the total mass of human-made artifacts worldwide has surpassed the total biomass of living organisms. This trend is largely driven by the use of industrial materials.

In the process of creating this work, we used industrial materials, such as pipes, as the main component to reconstruct the relationship between industry and nature. The aim is to imbue industrial artifacts with artistic life, allowing people to establish a new emotional connection with them.

You can interpret it as a set of tables and chairs, or perhaps a cat climbing frame, or even as a space installation that evokes a sense of confinement.

Art is subjective, so feel free to share your feelings about it here.

如今,有机体与人造物之间的平衡已达到一个临界点。据2020年12月9日在线发表在《自然》上的论文(Globalhuman-made mass exceeds all living biomass)所述,目前全球人造物的总质量已超越现存的生物总量。造成这一趋势的成因包括了工业材料的使用。在本次作品制作过程中,我们使用了水管这种工业材料为主体,将工业和自然之间的关系进行重构,旨在为工业造物赋予艺术方面的生命,让人与工业造物建立一种全新的情感连结。

你可以把它理解成一套桌椅,亦或者是猫爬架,也可以是一个体验束缚感的空间装置。

艺术是主观的,欢迎来这里写下你对它的感受。
