Dandelion - Riding the Wind......,
Artist's note
In our busy daily lives, we often do not recognize nature or live without realizing the value because of our daily routine. In this daily life, the artist installs works by modelling people, wind, and nature (dandelions etc.) commonly seen around and easily understood by anyone. So get away from our daily routine and imagine blowing dandelion on a dandelion or flying on a spore when we are young. Through our 'Dandelion - Riding the Wind...,', the artist offers viewers an oppor- tunity to immerse themselves in the world of children's hearts.
Introduction
In the bushes on one side of the Wadong branch school gate, white dandelion spores are ready to fly away. A boy is holding the spore, but he also is about to be carried away by the wind with the dandelion spore. The white dandelion and the boy gesture to the audience to fly to the sky together. The work with lighting is lit up at night, further stimulating the audience's anticipation for this trip to the sky.
