Kou Tak-Leong presents public art installation Coordinate Series - Glowing Blossom at Taichung Central Park.
Coordinate Series - Glowing Blossom, 2023
Laser Lights, Stainless Steel, Kinetic Motor Module
6.5 x 12 x 22 m
The artwork uses multiple linear laser beams to slowly scan the surrounding natural plants, depicting the multiple facets and contours of the forest. The light wanders slowly on the branches and buds of the trees, abstractly presenting the continuous vitality of the plants' inner movements, sometimes resembling a flowing energy, and other times resembling the embers about to burn out.
Although the laser light repeatedly scans the grass field every day, as the seasons change, the plants sprout and bloom and deciduous at different times, and the intervention of wind and rain, the outline in the details and visual state of the fireworks are always changing, forms a long movie which co-produce with time and space. It encourages people to observe the slight changes of life at different times and feel the poetic scene interwoven between man-made technology and nature.
