Project <游魚出聽 Yóu Yú Chū Tīng>(it's a Chinese ancient saying meaning "the music is so good that the fish swims out of the water")has invited music players and musicians joining the open field to play the sounds——or sometimes simply just the environment soundscapes, and I would do the "fish" sculptures by following the feeling created by the sounds or the fields every time differently. Also the whole process would be live-streaming on Shanghai community radio every time.
This whole project is for combining hearing and imaginations to be transformed into visions, and for making a tribute to music and sounds in the human world. Along my way growing up, music has always been a guide and company in my life--sometimes it's almost like a religion to me. Due to different cultural backgrounds, people would be related to different feelings when hearing certain kinds of music. And this is my version of "what I see"--by doing so, it would be interesting to show the local culture what I could have received from them. Meanwhile I hope that this project can free a sculptor’s hands and could make myself controlled by just simple instincts . This is what "basic" human beings have in us.
Until very recently, we have tried ambient, worldwide, shamanic, or gabber to be the “bait”. We have made it to the rooftop, the yard, the bookstore or the construction site….
