Shih Chieh Huang: Connected: Eject before disconnecting
Opens Friday, March 6, 2009
Shih Chieh Huang (Taiwanese, b.1975) describes his work as an ╲interchanging process between people and space.╡ The artist uses a low-tech approach to create installations with which the viewer interacts through video, sound and movement. Everyday objects such as electronic appliances, video players, toys, plastic bags, and containers are combined with air, water, light, cables, motion sensors, computer parts, and video footage to construct colorful and playful environments. Huangâ•˙s installations contain numerous kinetic components which are constantly in flux, with elegant and strange results.
