The project would be an audiovisual installation, represent the relation between nature and human being. I would like to use 2d hand drawing animation as the tool of visualizing the

Q: 1. go inside ,user's experience 2. change the first sentances 3.technique and the possibilities of the animation.

Introduction

After the research for EMO(Giants and Little People)[[1]] I have slightly moved further with the word "Scale". Since we born in this world, the scale of the world for us is always changing, it changes with the grow and shrink of our physical body, also relies on the understanding or our emotion/feeling to the world. At a macro level, out general understanding of this world is also changing by the time, such as the conversion of public perception from Geocentrism to Heliocentrism or the changing of peoples' feeling to nature presented in the western painting history.



And generally we stand only at the human being's perspective, the world which is heard and seen by nonhuman objects, is mostly unaware for us. How is the view if we look at the world from a different point of view and what kind of thoughts and feelings we could get from the role transition is my direction of research.

Depends on the topic I am interested, I would wok with image basically, probably also with sound. Thus the specific topic didn't been chosen yet, what I want to reach for this project is to push ourselves to a different view of seeing the world.

Relation to previous practice

When I started thinking the topic of the graduation project, I traced back to my old works before I came to PZI, most of them are illustrations. Then I realised in these drawings, little people or giants, the comparison of the scale between human and other species took a large part. Surely "scale" is an effective factor in different kinds of artwork, especially in drwaings and sculptures, I still wanted to dig out what is the point attracting me so much.

Relation to a larger context

[Nature/art/scale]:Western

The oldest known paintings are the Grotte Chauvet in France, the paintings show horses, rhinoceros, lions, buffalo, mammoth, abstract designs and what are possibly partial human figures. These paintings are thought as the respect for nature, or for the gain of prey.
