作品阐述
《睿寻》是一个为本届威尼斯双年展创作的基于地理位置的应用程序作品，观众可以在手机上下载艺术家开发的应用程序，在威尼斯水城里搜寻并体验艺术家“移植”在当地桥梁上的来自中国的桥梁。
《睿寻》通过关联来自两地的形态类似的桥梁，既展现了两个文明之间的相通性，又呈现了两个地域之间的差异性；作为系列作品之一，《有趣的世界》也是一个关于连接的作品，和《睿寻》不同的是，它试图连接的是一个更加广阔的社会场域。
作为对“愿你生活在有趣的时代”主题的回应，艺术家设计了一套社会化建造游戏来连接来自世界各地的参与者，在这个虚拟的三维世界里，参与者可以使用艺术家提供的大量回收自现实世界的三维模型来建造一个“有趣的世界”，也可以通过“桥”的连接来形成与其它“世界”的联通与互动。“桥”可以帮助人们跨越障碍，实现资源共享或建造协作，但是“桥”也可能引发无法预计的、令人不适的介入。
在这里“桥”不仅是一个建造要素，还是一个具有隐喻性的社会化工具。这个作品也可以被看作是一个社会化实验，它帮助我们测试、观察并理解大众在当下语境中复杂和多样的世界观。
“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.
