Viewpoints 9 (Cycle 5) Challenge 1

Title of work: Organized Chaos

Theme: Energy

My Feedback: The Sweet Energy

Bees are magical little lives. People only think of honey and flowers. What if one day bees disappear in the universe before we remember their greatness and the sweet energy that they contribute to mankind? Please do something and grow their favorite flowers and plants. Let’s take care of them and feed them! This is a preliminary idea of my 9 works in this cycle.

Artist Statement:

At present the world and natural environment are like a bunch of threads that has been messed up. There are no clues. Disordered disturbances come from all directions. Perhaps only the senior people who have enjoyed a peaceful and comfortable life would be unaccustomed to it! Imagining the natural world is initiating its “Life Energy” to adapt to the ever changing world, let’s change ourselves too!

 

                    side view of the work

Recently, I don’t like to watch news. I feel that I’m deviating from my habits. There are too many new ideas that I am not familiar with or different from the world I used to know. I feel challenged. If it means I failed to keep up with social development, I am fine. I just want to stay calm and give myself space and time to reflect and adjust my adaptability. I don’t want to rely on my old self. Hope I can have such energy. I bravely express my unaccustomedness with the work. Thank you for the prompt, Martha.
