This artwork is imbued with a strong industrial image and is a “new technological bicycle” made from stainless steel, tempered glass, a simple mechanical transmission system, and animation principles. The piece is a tribute to Eadweard James Muybridge (1830–1904), a photographer known for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion. His continuous photographs of a galloping horse in 1878 became the basis of animation and film. This artwork conveys the influence of technology on art and human culture, which is a popular focus of contemporary art.
本件作品以濃厚工業感的製品為意象,採用不銹鋼與強化玻璃,配合簡單的機械傳動與動畫原理,打造一座科技新鐵馬。同時也是向動態攝影的先驅埃德沃德˙邁布里奇(Eadweard James Muybridge, 1830-1904)致敬,他在1878年拍攝《運動的馬》,以連拍技術使人們第一次看見馬奔跑的瞬間動作,也成為動畫與電影的基礎。
當代藝術經常透過創作,回應科技如何改變我們對藝術或是對人文的想像,歡迎坐上這匹黑馬,踩動踏板,親身體驗互動裝置藝術帶來的樂趣!
