Artist statement

The air pollution China now suffers from is called Wù Mái. Wù means fog, Mái means Haze. Wù Mái is the result of interaction between specific climatic conditions and human activities. By creating an art installation, I want to do something to respond Wù Mái. It's a collaborative work with a smoke-effected video by Hui Huang. The geodesic dome structure is wrapped by clear plastic and viewers can watch the video through the structure. The viewers will witness what people experience in vastly polluted area. By giving viewers this experience, my purpose is to draw public attention to the urgent issue of air pollution. If we ignore it, if we accept it, it will become a grave issue. At that time, it will be too late to take action.
