Predstavljanje umjetnice Wenwen Liu

Razvojem civilnog društva, čovečanstvo nastavlja da utiče na prirodno okruženje, što dovodi do niza promena, uključujući i one klimatske.

Pustinja Kubuki je takođe nastala pod ljudskim uticajem – od predela pokrivenog travom do sedme po veličini pustinje u Kini. Posle tridesetogodišnjih napora, lokalno stanovništvo je uspešno uspelo da pošumi trećinu Kubuki pustinje, formirajući održiv zeleni predeo.

Kombinujući umetnost sa naukom i psihologijom, digitalni radovi umetnice Wenwen Lui pojačavaju doživljaj publike i pomažu joj da bolje interpretira fenomen klimatskih promena.

Transformišući apstraktne materijale u fizičke, umetnost kao kreativan alat nameće klimatske promene kao globalnu temu i pomaže ljudima da ispituju nekadašnju i trenutnu situaciju.

Rad Wenwen Liu se bazira na istraživanjima o Kubuki pustinji i ona u svom radu kombinuje lično osećanje i ekološko iskustvo u pošumljavanju. Programiranjem algoritama i vizuelizacijom podataka ona podstiče diskusiju o svakodnevnim navikama i umetnošću podigne svest o ovoj aktuelnoj temi.

Wenwen Liu je studije završila na Huber ekonomskom univerzitetu u Kini, a master studije na Teesside univerzitetu u Velikoj Britaniji. Trenutno piše svoju doktorsku disertaciju.

———-

With the progress of social civilization, human activities continue to disturb and interfere with the natural environment, resulting in a series of impacts, such as the climate crisis.

Due to the interference of early human activities, the Kubuqi Desert has degenerated from grassland to the seventh-largest desert in China. After more than 30 years of efforts, local enterprises and residents have successfully afforested one-third of the Kubuqi Desert, forming a sustainable landscape of green and rich.

Combining art with science and psychology, Wenwen Liu’s digital artwork enhances the audience’s perception, and helps them interpret the phenomenon of climate change. By transforming abstract material into physical material, it promotes art as a creative tool to connect climate change with global thinking and help people question the past and current situation.

Based on Wenwen Liu’s research in the Kubuqi Desert, she combines personal feelings and ecological experience in the Kubuqi Desert to carry out art practice. Wenwen Liu uses data visualisation and algorithm coding  to build a discussion space related to daily life through art to attract people’s attention.

Wenwen Liu finished her bachelor’s degree at Huber University of Economics (2013-2017) in China and her master’s degree at Teesside University (2017-2018) in the UK. At present, she is doing her Ph.D. study at Teesside University. Her work involves data visualization, digital art, concept art, and game design.
