对抗共生

拆解重组是艺术家的擅长。这件作品表现相互对质、对抗、共同生长的寓意。对生物属性的肺进行机械化的再造，它是对未来可能的呈现，也是一种充满自省的反思。生物化的机械，机械化的生物，人怎么变成机器，机器怎么更像人，生命与机器的交杂会创造什么概念，怎么相互对抗，怎么相互融合。

事到如今，人类有意无意地让移动工具、让工业制造承担了空气污染的原罪，这究竟是责任的转移，还是被欲望所反噬？我们不得不面对技术的智能化更迭过程中会被牺牲的部分，也许这是社会进步的必然，也是进步过程中不可避免的缺憾和代价。

Confrontation and Coexistence

Artists are master of dismantling and reorganization. This work shows the connotations of counterview, confrontation and coexistence. Mechanized reconstruction ofthe lung is a possible reflection towards the future, and also a self-examination with introspection. Biological machinery and mechanized creatures, how do human beings become machines, and how do machines look more like human beings? What concept will life and machines create and how do they  fight each other and merge with each other?

Now, human beings intentionally or unintentionally force mobile tools and the industrial manufacturing bear the original sin of air pollution. Is this the transfer of responsibility or the feedback damage brought by desire? We have to face the sacrifices during the process of technological intelligentization. This might inevitable for social progress, and also the inevitable regrets and costs in the process of progress.
