THE PEACE OF WILD THINGS


The pressures in the city makes more and more people unable to breathe. For people living in the city, the brief withdrawal of returning to nature can release the pressure. Therefore, I record and reproduce the nature in different ways, leaving us with visual and auditory relaxation. I combine the visual and auditory reproductions into the space, so as to provide a relaxed environment for the audience and play a role in relieving pressure.




“A REPRODUCTION OF NATURE VISUALS” 

I tired to experiment with different materials and methods to record the visuals of nature, then I extracted elements out to make different marks. Paper marbling is a good method to magnify and record the effects of the water, such as water ripples, waves and flows. Using drawing implements attached to different tree branches, wind’s effects on the tree, leaved marks on paper to record the wind.
              


                           

















“EXHIBITION POSTER” 

The three marks on the poster translate into [大自然] [的] [安宁] (The Peace of Wild Things). I choose to print all the text on a transparent sheet and lay on top of the marks because the mark is an independent abstract language. The goal is to let the audience understand the meaning of the marks.









“THE DICTIONARY” 

The book plays the role as a dictionary, the marks are arranged in a specific lay on each page. The meanings of the combination of all the marks on each page, hide in the fold.


 









“A REPRODUCTION OF NATURE SOUNDS - HANDPAN”
The research shows handpan drum has a calming effect on our brains. The soft sounds let go of stress and tension. I created several sound tracks with handpan, trying to imitate the characteristics of four nature sounds and I chose the most similar sound tracks to match with the four nature sounds.





“PRESSURE-RELIEF EXHIBITION ︎&︎”
I combine the visual and auditory reproductions into space. By using the visual reproductions, I created videos and project them on four walls of a room, so as to provide a relaxed environment for the audience and play a role in relieving pressure.


          







“WEBSIATE & APPLICATION” The website and application combines the visual and auditory reproductions of nature into the space, using virtual reality to provide a relaxed environment for the audience and play a role in relieving pressure.
