Desert Garden 2025 Dimension variable Transparent LED display, glass and stainless steel sculptures, painting and drawing on wood panel, custom floor mat
A giant, transparent flower sways continuously in an uncanny garden&mdash;an ever-shifting landscape where mirage-like forms flicker between presence and absence. Created for Encounters 2025, Desert Garden by Frank Wang Yefeng immerses viewers in a world where the boundaries between the human and non-human, virtual and physical, dissolve. At its core, the luminous flower&mdash;rendered on a shimmering LED ice screen&mdash;hovers between organic life and digital apparition, surrounded by fragmented desert landscapes that oscillate between desolation and renewal. Yefeng&rsquo;s practice navigates the instability of identity, place, and perception, shaped by his experiences of migration and cultural displacement. Born in Shanghai and now based between New York and Shanghai, he works across 3D animation, video installation, sculpture, and text, constructing speculative worlds that explore the tensions of belonging and estrangement. In Desert Garden, he draws on his journey to the Gobi Desert, translating its vast, liminal spaces into a poetic meditation on movement, transformation, and the paradoxes of nomadic existence. The work fuses digital and material elements, including 3D animation, sculptural interventions, and an immersive multimedia environment, blurring the line between simulation and sensation. The desert, often imagined as an empty expanse, becomes a charged space of adaptation, imagination, and shifting possibilities. The swaying flower, a recurring motif in Yefeng&rsquo;s work, embodies fragility and persistence, existing in a state of perpetual motion yet tethered to an elusive ground. Blending playful aesthetics with conceptual depth, Desert Garden invites viewers into a speculative landscape where perception is fluid, and new worlds continuously unfold.

《沙漠花園》 2025 尺寸不定 透明 LED顯示器、玻璃與不鏽鋼雕塑、木板的繪畫素描、訂製地墊
在一個詭異的花園中，一朵巨大的透明花朵不斷搖曳在這變幻莫測的場景中，幻影般的形態於存在與消失之間變動。王業豐為2025年「藝聚空間」展區創作的《沙漠花園》將觀眾帶入一個人類與非人類、虛擬與實體界限消融的世界。作品的核心是一朵在透明LED屏幕上閃爍的發光花朵，它介於有機生命和數碼幻象之間，周圍是振蕩於荒蕪與重生之間的零碎沙漠景觀。王業豐出生於上海，目前在紐約和上海兩地工作。他的藝術創作探索身份、場所與感知的不穩定性，這些都源於他移居的經歷與文化錯位的體驗。他的作品涵蓋3D動畫、影片裝置、雕塑和文字等媒介，構建了一個探索歸屬感與疏離感之間的張力的虛擬世界。在《沙漠花園》中，他借鑒了自己在戈壁沙漠的旅程，將這個廣闊的臨界空間轉化為關於移動、轉變和遊牧生活悖論的詩意沉思。作品融合了數碼和物質元素，包括3D動畫、雕塑介入和沉浸式多媒體環境，模糊了虛擬與感知之間的界限。沙漠這個常被想像為空曠之地的場所，成為了一個適應、想像和流動可能性的張力空間。搖曳的花朵是王業豐作品中反覆出現的主題，象徵著脆弱與持久。它存在於永不停息的運動中，卻又繫於荒蕪的土地之上。《沙漠花園》融合了趣味美學與思想深度，邀請觀眾進入一個感知流動、新世界不斷展開的虛擬景觀。
