Design Narrative
In April 2022, a large-scale virus infection broke out in Shanghai, causing Shanghai residents to stay indoors and lack sufficient rations and daily necessities to sustain their lives. There were gradually reports of deaths due to hunger and illness. The elderly mainly grew fruits and vegetables in their own homes, and the planting area was small. As one of the most important groups in society, although they gradually grew older, their physical fitness also gradually decreased. But as the earliest generation of social development, they are the leaders and engines of future generations' development. Each group has its own strength, and when combined, they can produce more abundant flowers.
The outer white frame of the 25m x 25m device embodies various constraints, hardships, diseases, etc., such as the large-scale epidemic that plagued Shanghai residents in April 2022, and the roots and stamens inside are constantly breaking through the cage and constraints, showcasing their most attractive and prosperous side. When a person touches a petal with their hand, the roots connected to the petal also emit light. That is to say, each petal has its own root vein, and only with roots can there be blooming petals. It is precisely the combination of different petals that gives rise to a flower that can break through constraints and bloom in the most beautiful posture.
