ZHOU Wendou, <ADHD>, Stainless steel, auto wipers, ink, 300x500x500cm, 2015
ZHOU Wendou ADHD
Zhou Wendou uses conceptual style of creation and humorous language of art to express a perspective that is somewhat different from other contemporary Chinese works. <ADHD>(2015) is a circular installation work which is larger than 2 meters in diameter. Ink constantly gushes out from the top, and more than 20 ‘windscreen wipers’ installed on the surface make repeated movements to remove the gushing ink. Through such mechanical movements, the artist alludes to the non-automatically controlled characteristics of the modern people that we can easily find in our daily life, excessively repetitive movements and habits. Furthermore, the work is a figurative expression of the internet age in which data is produced endlessly and mechanically, and the state of gradually becoming dull due to attention deficit disorder. |
