Combine family photos with the colors of bruises to create a series of illustrations and print them on acrylic panels hanging from the ceiling with chrome reflective material hanging behind them. The function of the chrome reflective material is similar to the function of the mirror, when the audience stands in front of the acrylic plate, he can see the acrylic plate of bruises floating on his face through the reflection effect of the chrome material, this way can make the audience better empathy, and use its hazy texture, so that the concrete family photo on the acrylic plate reflected into a fuzzy bruise.

This is the first work to have indoor effects and male audience effects.

Take supernatural scenes from Google Maps and use Minecraft game's free build mode to create an otherworld space. Airplanes fly through buildings, cars drive over buildings, stairs in the air, buildings built upside down, and so on. And then edit it into a video to make experimental images.

The triptych illustration works tell the story, telling the story that a chain connects the goathead character with the coffin, and he must travel with the coffin. The picture on the far right depicts his family attending his funeral, returning to reality and increasing the dreaminess of the work. It is mainly to express that people are overly afraid of death and should focus on the present experience and have an inclusive attitude towards death. The AR effect is added to bring the audience into the narrative of the work, so that the audience can immerse themselves in the story and the work.

About

My name is Zhulin Chang, born in 1997, from Chongqing, China. I majored in illustration as an undergraduate and have learned professional knowledge in Sichuan Fine Arts Institute for 4 years. At the Royal College of Art, I studied art communication, and interdisciplinary knowledge. For someone like me who is interested in many fields, I will apply the interdisciplinary knowledge I have learned to my own works in the future. Especially experimental films and paintings. I used to write some plays and novels to carry my imagination. In the future, I want to use my learning background to create more works by combining painting with audience participation, experimental video and installation.
