bitTOWER
Wu Juehui (CN)
bitTOWER is inspired by the ouroboros, one in which every element of the installation acts serves as a visual metaphor for something. The scaffold matrix creates a space with a limited mass, as though the epidermis of the excessively expanding city had been torn apart, exposing its internal organs. The cycle of lights acts as a moon and sun, with shadows of mottled steel pipes expanding the borders of the matrix. The interplay of lights and projected digital images creates a virtual world that’s swiftly shifting between night and day. The spiral cases inside the matrix overlap and, just like the ˟ouroboros˟, begins where it also ends. The immersive environment opens a wormhole into another dimension for the audience, with the synesthetic ceremony leading to a sense of reverie.
