Unfolding Wind (for Aesop)

material | moso bamboo, rice paper, wood, iron, wire
Artist Cheng Tsung FENG is known for his creations that explore and reinterpret traditional handcraft cultures. For this installation commissioned by Aesop, he drew inspiration from the craft of folding fans—an artform deeply connected to wind.
By deconstructing the flat bamboo structures typically used in fan-making, FENG applied digital parametric modeling to transform and reinterpret the material. Reusing bamboo, wood, and hardware components from his previous outdoor installations, he crafted a four-meter-long sculptural form that flows with dynamic movement. The result is a lightweight, airy structure that appears to float effortlessly within Aesop’s space in this city of wind.

藝術家范承宗的創作都與傳統手工文化有關，他為Aesop創作的裝置作品，關注的題材是與風相關的折扇工藝。他解開本為平面的竹扇材料與結構方式，透過數位參數化建模軟體進行變化運算，將過往戶外裝置作品所留下的竹木與五金材料再次利用，製作成四公尺長的立體流動形態，輕盈地漂浮在風城的Aesop空間中。
