Stemming from the concept of "umwelt," Building Up an Ecosystem through Sensory Perception is a project developing an installation work with shifting energy as the foundation for the future performance of Invisible Forces. Wang Shih-Wei will work with artists from diverse fields to experiment on sound, light, and the materials of the installation. As a team, they will investigate the ambiguity and binary opposition between nature and artificial products and will create a space in which the two juxtapose, connect, conflict, and blend with each other. In this space, simple materials and sound will also be adopted to simulate the dynamic energy in static nature and to build a poetic “sensory ecosystem.” During the residence period, the team will also host talks, workshops, exhibitions, and performances to communicate the concept of “de-anthropocentrism” to participants and to share the influences brought about by the interactions and cross-infiltrations among organisms in nature. These activities are expected to highlight the growing uncertainty about the future and the doomsday phobia in this Anthropocene epoch as well as to explore the possibility of all species’ integrating, surviving, and living together. The project treats art as the medium to evoke people’s awareness of the interdependency of personal lives and the overall environment.
