Exploring invisible forces like wind, scent, and electricity, a Dyson blade-less fan is incorporated in Untitled (2017) to create an air current through the aperture of the beeswax monolith. Geometric abstraction takes on another kind of physicality as electric airflow is circulating with the sensual texture and aroma of golden beeswax.
The scent of the beeswax is wafting in the air with the help of the bladeless Dyson fan; it’s subtle yet pervasive. As you walk into the space, the fragrance is immediately sensed, but one cannot be sure what the smell is until closer inspection of the piece. The air current is also not instantly felt but detected when one walks directly in front of the aperture.
《无题》(2017)探索风、气味和电等无形的力。作品中采用了戴森无叶风扇来制造气流,使其不断地从一块庞大蜂蜡的孔洞中穿过。几何抽象在此呈现出另一种物理性,气流随着金色蜂蜡富有感官刺激的质地和香气而循环。
并且气流并非立即可以被察觉,只有处在孔洞正前方时方可感受到空气的流动。
