研究概要
「肉假山」
随著现代中国各城市步入工业社会，这传统样式的”假山石”作为一个特定的中国符号仍竖立其中。
在最初的园林建造里园林师是想通过这种奇特的天然原石来体现自然回归天人合一的愿望。
但随著外部环境的变化，这种最初的传统概念显得越来越荒谬光怪陆离。
以此为切入点，通过假山石这个古老的传统符号，融入情感和性等元素，尝试著描写各种新语境下假山的处境


The concept works:
Since cities in China entered into industrial sociaty, the traditional Artificial Stone is still envolved in cities as a specific Chinese symbol.At the earliest stage of landscape architecture, the garden designers wish to present the idea of harmony between human and nature through the unique natural rough stone.However, this traditional concept is more likely becoming grotesquely due to the change of external environment. Regarding to this point, the author try to explore the situation of artificial stone under various kinds of newly context. Particularly, using the traditional symbol of artificial stone as well as combining factors of sex and emotion to present it. My works symbolizes the adaptation of Chinese cultural tradition to today’s conditions and new aesthetics. I have been pursuing a work which can combine man’s dual needs into a whole, and this is just one example which represents a relationship between man’s material and spiritual experiences.I serious account of the source of inspiration for a work of dualism again attests to my ideas of art practice: to pursue conceptual thinking rather than technical.
