Crystal Bubble Palace
2025
Video with sound, fog, foams
6 minuets 17 seconds
Site-specific work at Glasshouse (ZIAN Gallery's project space)
Crystal Bubble Palace is a video installation specially commissioned for Glasshouse, ZIAN Gallery’s project space, inspired by its five-sided glass structure. The video juxtaposes hazy imagery and soundscapes of rising heat from New York City streets, kitchen smoke, and steam on bathroom mirrors with moments of magical transformation and attacks by female characters from the artist’s childhood media influences: Ami Mizuno’s Bubble Spray attack in Sailor Moon, the serpent spirits in Legend of the White Snake, and demonic metamorphoses in Journey to the West. Mist, steam, foam, glass—these are not only materials but metaphors. They connect feminine fantasy and discipline, fragility and strength, ephemeral illusions and transformative potential. Intertwining these aqueous motifs with Peter Sloterdijk’s critique in his Spheres trilogy, the work asks: Could foams—ephemeral, collective, and fluid—serve as a soft yet radical force to reconfigure our world?

水晶泡泡宫
2025
有声视频、烟雾、泡沫
6分17秒
这件为Glasshouse（桉画廊项目空间）特别定制的录像装置，围绕一座五面玻璃的建筑展开想象。纽约街头蒸腾的热气、厨房炊烟、浴室镜面上的水雾，与思典成长过程中熟悉的影视作品中女性角色魔法变身与攻击的瞬间——《美少女战士》中水野亚美的香波攻击、《魔法小樱》的水之咒、《白蛇传》《西游记》中的妖精角色等。水雾、蒸汽、泡沫、玻璃——既是媒介，也是隐喻。它们连接起女性在情感世界中的幻想与规训、柔弱与力量、脆弱的幻想与现实的变革能力。艺术家将这些与“水气”相关的朦胧影像与音效并置，同时借助彼得·斯洛特戴克（Peter Sloterdijk）在球体三部曲中的批判，尝试发问：泡沫（foams）可以是一种重新组织世界的柔性力量吗？
