The Standard includes 14 pieces, each with a different size. The largest one measures 23cm x 16cm x 16cm. The artist utilized thousands of children's toys, specifically sandpit 'soldiers,' to assemble 10 standardized geometric forms through melting, folding, squeezing, and molding. Each plastic toy soldier undergoes a 'war' disaster, transforming into multiple standardized forms much larger than their original selves
The sandpit 'soldiers' were popular toys during the artist's childhood. Boys used to manipulate these simulated toy soldiers in the sandbox, engaging in war games. Each child controlling the sandbox toys participated in war simulations purely for entertainment.
The 10 standardized geometric forms represent the artist's early practice in basic sketching while learning to paint. This practice with geometric forms marks the beginning of standardized training in painting, transitioning from free doodling to the academic system of painting. When this medium (the soldiers) is applied to serious artworks, it signifies a shift from entertainment to serious art. Disorganized toys are integrated into several standardized geometric forms, intertwining childhood, toys, games, society, war, and cruelty.
