Ai wei wei


Ai wei wei a Chinese artist, activist, and philosopher, who is also active in architecture, curating, photography, film, and social and cultural criticism. Most of the master piece and work of his in my research was more to re-create a furniture to become a artistic art work.













he mostly using past dynasty furniture by using the method of mix and match to re-create another artistic piece of work. it seem spoiled the original of the art work, but he re-create a new artistic piece of the same material to a different point of view, it shows that we could also see and feel things on a different way. he make things and thinking out of the box and the box is never in a shape of square.



he also involve in the most famous architecture in china the ' bird nest stadium '  . in his different point of view, he using only line and metal to build up the huge stadium. the repetition of the line giving a smooth flow of the shape of a bird nest, it look simple as it involve only lines but it is very complexity between the arrangement of the line. each of the simple line need to arrange in a proper space and place to assure the supporting of the whole stadium. As it look simple but feel complicated. it is a great creation of lines to shape.
