"Huan Shou" (Phantom Head) is a sound, light, and spatial installation composed of a 10-minute-and-37-second musical composition and 43 sets of boat-shaped lighting installations. It creates a multi-dimensional experiential space imbued with "new Eastern imagery," expressing a resolute attitude of setting sail once again—"leaving the river, entering the sea, and thriving facing the ocean." An immense energy swirls within the gallery, as if poised to burst forth, pierce the sky, and soar like a dragon aloft. The music unfolds in five movements: Leaving the River, Entering the Sea, Ascending to the Sky, Reaching the Horizon, and Dissolving into Emptiness. The lighting shifts in brightness and rhythm in response to the music, evoking the development and transformation of different emotions. Through diverse artistic practices and interactive spatial design, the work creates a new experience of sculptural space.
