Vilter

Zine: VILTER WORLD. The work is based on the author's first view of travelling on the London Underground, and uses creative lines, wildly imaginative patterns, and real-life scenarios to recreate the particles in our cities. Created on matte, cold-printed and eco-friendly paper, the artwork is presented in the form of a booklet and a promotional card, which illustrates the urgent need to protect the atmosphere. Through the experience of 'VLITER WORLD', the underground station, which is filled with harmful particles, is exposed to the public, and it provokes people to think about it.

Promotional card: VILTERS The work is based on the author's first view of travelling on the London Underground, and uses creative lines, wildly imaginative patterns, and real-life scenarios to recreate the particles in our cities. Created on matte, cold-printed and eco-friendly paper, the artwork is presented in the form of a booklet and a promotional card, which illustrates the urgent need to protect the atmosphere. Through the experience of 'VLITER WORLD', the underground station, which is filled with harmful particles, is exposed to the public, and it provokes people to think about it.

Installation: I can't see. At this moment when time is frozen, black particles float in front of us, what is in front of us? What is behind me? I am in a dilemma, I can't see anything clearly wrapped in fear, who can give me a clear world? This work makes use of UV glue and black ribbons to physically present the particulate filters in the solidified space, which is a part of the thematic story line, and cleverly uses the twisting of the ribbons to convey the fear of not being able to see the picture clearly, while the solidified space expressed by the UV glue is also ice-cold, which later on reflects the depressing and indifferent surrounding environment, so that the audience can be immersed into the atmosphere when viewing the installation. When viewers watch the installation, they can also experience the author's experience and feelings at that time in an immersive way.

Video: We are under the same filter I entered the London Underground station with the ear-splitting sound of the tube rubbing against the tracks, the place suddenly turned a uniform colour, I waited for the tube as usual in disbelief, sitting in my chair I felt more and more out of place, but the pedestrians in a hurry in front of me didn't seem to be aware of it. I got on the metro in fear, there was a book on the seat which seemed to draw these monster-like grains, after reading it I got off the metro in a creepy way, but it was as if I couldn't get rid of this filter anymore, it stayed in front of me. The video is accompanied by scary music that creates a suffocating atmosphere. The moment the author enters the underground station she realises the particles, but she doesn't take them seriously, and when she finally discovers that the harmful particles described in the book are the same as the ones that we find ourselves in in real life, she is scared, uncertain and wants to break and run away. The video, with its grotesque rhythms and realistic, filtered perspective, reflects the urgency of the problem of atmospheric pollution facing mankind.
