Red-shift

"Strangers living in Shanghai are like pieces of duckweed on the sea. They constantly seek identity in life, virtual or real. Each neglible individual strives to integrate into and react with this city. The relationship between new migrants and old citizens is also changing, and establishes a new duality in place of mutual isolation, rejection and opposition." Liu focuses on the strangers living in Shanghai. The hung light box is in the shape of flowing water, and 6 pieces of different paintings are overlapped in each light box to constitute a momentary movement. ".

Embedded sensors make the light boxes twinkle when someone passes by. "Each group of light box picture is like a flowing history. It arouses a momentary and flowing history when the visitor walks around and gets close to it. Living and staying are like electromagnetic waves: in the band of visible light, the spectral line moves a bit towards RED."
