Fruit of the Sun : This artwork features a circular steel frame and solar panels, similar to the design of the S olar Tree, to reflect the unique characteristics of the base. The piece, when reflected in the pool of water, creates a perfect spherical shape, symbolizing a fruit falling from the Solar Tree behind it. The concept illustrates the natural cycle, with the “fruit” representing energy harvested from the sun, a harmonious connection between technology and nature.
Messenger of the Wind : Depicts the final outcome of civil and technological development which should be letting the environment return to the ideal state of natural life through the reappearance of the Sika Deer–the vanished species on the land of Chianan Plain, Taiwan. The wind power generator is used to symbolize the mission of the deer horn shape conveying green energy towards environmental development.
