Sacred Blessing

Sacred Blessing is a site-specific art installation created for a temple in Taiwan. The work translates temple prayer rituals into a contemporary spatial form. The structure is shaped like open hands and stands about 5200 mm high. Modular timber units are joined by precise interlocking assembly, with few fasteners. Wood and bamboo are used for sustainability and for a natural visual character. Visitors can step inside the hands, where engraved wooden scripts surround them. The installation invites quiet reflection on faith and heritage.

The Allegory

The Allegory is a permanent public art installation set into the central plaza of a sports park in Taipei. The design draws on Baroque and Rococo ceiling frescoes and joins them with symbols of baseball stadiums, consumer goods and entertainment. The composition measures 11.4 by 11.4 meters and includes 37 cast iron panels, 10 angel figures and 50 flower-shaped plates. Wooden molds are carved by machine, cast in metal by sand casting and then hand-filled with colored epoxy resin. Set flush with the floor, the four directions of the work guide people across the plaza.

Conch

The Conch combines nature's beauty with mathematical precision, featuring an elliptical Fibonacci spiral resembling a conch, infinity symbol, or musical note. Designed with parametric software, it consists of 30 layers of elliptical metal rings stacked precisely for a light, rhythmic structure. Concealed water pipes in the base create a hidden fountain at the sculpture's center. Symbolizing natural growth and cosmic energy flow, the spiral inspires contemplation on mathematics, nature, and aesthetics, enhancing urban landscapes with deep symbolism and cultural significance.

Cadence of the Spiral

Cadence of the Spiral explores time as something elastic, relational, and alive. A strip of stainless spring steel is shaped into an ever evolving form by thirty mechanical arms moving in subtle, phase shifted rhythms. As the spiral breathes, twists, and reorganizes itself, no two moments are ever the same. Inspired by the mainspring of a mechanical watch, the work reinterprets coiled metal as a vessel of stored energy and temporal flow. Rather than repeating motion, it reveals change through controlled variation, time is not measured but felt.

Pop Star

Pop Star is an art installation and view platform based on the geometric shape of the icosahedron. The work is built as a steel structure measuring 15000 mm in each direction. The form is derived from the compound eye of an insect, enlarged to a scale beyond normal human visual reading. Visitors can enter the central area and look out over the surrounding fields. From the outside the volume appears solid and imposing, while the inner space feels quiet and enclosed. Pop Star was designed in Beijing in 2019 and completed in Shanghai in 2020.

Resonance

Resonance is a site specific floating light installation composed of seven modular black iron structures positioned in the waters of Yuejin Harbor. Inspired by the cyclical order of the Seven Luminaries, the installation translates celestial rhythms into sequences of programmed light that extend across water and shoreline. Woven nylon ropes act as both structural tension and luminous surfaces, diffusing light through the steel framework. Through reflections, spatial layering, and controlled light movement, the installation creates a dynamic visual field that shifts with distance and viewpoint.
