Inspired by the number, “three”, Linear Flora combines the geometric elements created by Ray Teng Pai and the bougainvillea, the flower of Pingtung County. Apart from the three bougainvillea petals seen from below the artwork, variations of three and the multiples of three could be spotted in different aspects.
“Three” is a meaningful concept in religion, philosophy and applied mechanics. In contrast to the binary opposition that number two symbolizes, three adds another dimension to our thinking. It represents the balance between one’s body, mind and soul, the understanding between you, me and him/her and the possibilities of the present, the past and the future.
The unique shape and the structure of this piece as well as the various changes in brightness corner on the Dapeng Bay. Ray Teng Pai deliberately raises the work up to three meters high, allowing the visitors to walk underneath it as they could view it from the most perfect angle, feeling the philosophy of three.
When the growing bubble hits the critical point of 25 nanometers film thickness, it breaks. 25 Nano compares the recycling and the reproduction of glass poetically with the constant recycling and rebirth of bubbles. The work uses several contrasts, such as light and shadow, solid and fragile, temporary and permanent, to express the relativity of things; the end is the beginning of new opportunity.
25 Nano is an artistic light instrument to represent ephemeral and permanence, birth, and death. Working with Spring Pool Glass Industrial CO., LTD, whose vision is building a systematic glass recycle loop for a sustainable future, 25 Nano chose the relatively fragile bubble as a medium in contrast with solid glass to embody the idea. In the instrument, light shimmers through life cycles of the bubble, projecting rainbow-like color and shadows to the environment, creating a dreamy atmosphere around the user.
Touch the metal sensor on top of the glass shade to turn on the light. The bubble starts to grow in rhythm, and the refractions of light change accordingly.
