ICELAND 冰屿
Inspired by two distinct locations, ICELAND creatively juxtaposes contrasting geographic contexts through a montage of light and form.
The installation’s primary visual elements — icebergs and local stones found near streams at the exhibition venue — were meticulously captured using detailed 3D scanning. Luminescent composite materials were then precisely crafted using CNC molding techniques. Integrated LED lighting replicates the RGB color values captured initially by cameras, which were analyzed and recalibrated through sophisticated machine algorithms. This machine-driven process translates colors perceived through digital sensors into a tangible visual language, the color transformation between the machine's merges these disparate landscapes onto natural stone surfaces, challenging conventional perceptions of space and environment, allowing people to navigate the experience of machine perception intertwined with human sensory understanding.
As night falls, a blue halo gradually envelops the installation, immersing people in a walking visual experience reminiscent of genuine Iceland.
