FLOWINGSCAPE is an outdoor installation deployed at Taiwan Contemporary Culture Lab, a former Air Force Headquarters transformed into a site of art and technological experimentation. The work captures real-time environmental data: wind speed and direction. And uses it to directly drive the fluid movement and velocity of an expansive light field. The installation doesn't interpret the wind. It traces it.
An integrated LED control system mapped across a custom stainless steel structure follows the natural topography of the site, laying hot pink and white light across planted landscape in organic contour lines. Seen from above the lines read like a topographic map. Seen from the ground they glow almost imperceptibly against the grass, tracing the literal shape of air moving across the surface. 1500cm in length and width, 70cm in height. The opposite of monumental. A nocturnal landscape that changes with every shift in the atmosphere.
