Re-Circle- Temporary Permanence

Re-Circle- Temporary Permanence 
穿越循環- 一時的永恆
 
Taipei Original Festival, Songshan Culture and Creative Park, Taipei. Taiwan
Nov. 2012








The project is collaborated with the HIM International Music company and their artist team SHE. The materials are SHE's performance clothes from their previous albums. The work presents the world and nature, life and death, space and boundaries. They created a space responds to the life circle and transformation by deconstructing the materials through bleaching, dying, cutting and sewing.
