This work depicts Flowing Life centered around the Chicago River. Non-human life forms live and move beneath the green waters. Due to industrial pollution of the river, only five species of Chicago River wildlife were initially discovered, but now increased to 77 species. As one of the analog production methods, the watercolor stroke animation created by the artist through continuous strokes represents the newly emerged energy of wildlife. The sound produced by an analog synthesizer. The artist use synthesizer to create flowing melody and sound texture to explores the relationships among the sound and visualized lives.
This is an experiment about video collage. I was doing a collage about I observation of the surrounding world. The title “The Polyphony” is a hint of the relationship between video and audio. There is always a sound that is different from what I see, echoing in my heart, sometimes lift and sometimes fall. They seem to have nothing to do with reality, but in fact they are echoing each other and play a polyphonic music together.
