The Jungle of Forged Statues
Beijing 798 Art District renewal plan
Date/March to July, 2021
Location/ 798 Art District, Beijing, China
Type/ Academic, individual work
The project aims to create a platform that addresses the issue of monotony in the setting of the 798 art zone in Beijing by viewers creating their own avatars in space.
In the context of the society with a lack of individual identity, the strategy is not to evade or outright reject this trend. Instead, it is to remain vigilant in the critical assessment of its symbolic significance. Furthermore, the project aims to actively contribute to the transformation of the spiritual atmosphere within the 798 Art Zone.
By recreating the phenomenon of follow-through imitation, the 798 Art Zone will regain its role as a prominent representation of Chinese contemporary art. This process will also facilitate the transformation of art into a form of communicative value. The art event primary focus will be on stimulating the audience's awakening.
