Artwork description: The title of the artwork is "I Have Been Growing." It is a glass installation art piece that combines augmented reality (AR) technology. The physical part of the artwork consists of a glass installation in reality, complemented by virtual animations presented through augmented reality. This integration breaks away from traditional static displays in glass art, creating an interactive and immersive art experience for viewers. The inspiration for the artwork is deeply rooted in the artist's personal growth journey. From childhood to adulthood, the artist has experienced moving between multiple cities for education, facing setbacks and even inner closures, but ultimately finding opportunities for self-exploration and breakthroughs. Throughout this journey, the love and support of parents, teachers, and classmates have accompanied the artist, facilitating healthy growth. Each stage of this unique life journey is marked by transformations and self-discovery, reflecting the complexity and depth of challenges faced by children growing up in a constantly changing environment. The artwork incorporates tangible elements such as suitcases and corridors, carefully selected from the artist's developmental environment. These elements are reinterpreted and infused with subjective emotions, using "form" to express "meaning," thereby immersing viewers in rich emotional experiences. The suitcase serves as the centerpiece of the glass installation in reality, symbolizing the twists and turns of life's journey and the fusion of history with the future. Designed in a framework style, the installation creates an open space inviting viewers to explore its inner world from different perspectives, encouraging interaction with the artwork. The glass structure inside the framework incorporates steampunk elements, featuring minimalist pipe-shaped stairs that seem to ascend endlessly, symbolizing the exploration of new possibilities within an infinite cycle. The open framework structure, while simple in form, contrasts with the complexity of its internal structure, symbolizing the hidden complexity beneath its outward simplicity. Breaking away from traditional boundaries between form and function, it transforms into a vessel of memories, carrying stories and experiences from the journey of growth. The design of the virtual character combines the symbolic freedom of a mysterious cat, depicted as a cat-headed humanoid girl with an all-black, simplified structure. This design focuses viewers on the character's form and silhouette, highlighting inner rather than external features. The dynamic animation of the virtual character primarily presents walking motions, metaphorically depicting the continuous pursuit of self-discovery and breakthroughs during the journey. The aim of this artwork is to offer a perspective through artistic language, allowing viewers to deeply understand and resonate with the challenges and opportunities encountered during the process of growth. Simultaneously, it seeks to inspire viewers to pay profound attention and value to family, social environments, and self-awareness through the artwork.
