Osmosis (2021)

The incident concerning the Fukushima nuclear wastewater makes people examine globalization and the marine environment again. The debate about whether diluted nuclear wastewater is harmful to the ecosystem is ongoing. On this basis, I launched an artistic discussion on water circulation, including how water circulates in the human body and nature. This series aims to find a balance and my role as an individual in water circulation.

Sugar is a form of carbohydrate that can provide energy for various creatures. I added a lot of sugar to six bottles of purified water to saturate it and produce precipitation. These six bottles of substances were then placed on the beach, washed down by the waves, and drifted along the rise and fall of the tide. The substances in the bottle melted into the seawater, and the seawater was also melted into the substances. Finally, these containers, accompanied by residual seawater, sugar water, and white sugar precipitation, were collected and placed in the center of the beach.
