"I AM AT OTHER TIMES A BOY AND A GIRL, A BUSH AND A BIRD, A SEDATE FISH IN THE SEA ......"
——SIMONDON
The video work, "A Bird's Desktop," aims to discuss the survival of birds in the process of contemporary "urbanization" and the alienation of zoos as a man-made institution to the survival of birds. The content of the work is taken from the aviary in Hangzhou Zoo, China, combined with the artist's hand performance, touch, and visualization of "human destruction of nature." The work presents the "human's destructive behaviors towards nature" figuratively. Try to reveal the "alternative reality" of birds that is, a reality that exists in reality but is isolated from cognition.
