ISLANT
2022
Concept design
The epidemic has brought about tremendous changes in our lives. During the quarantine period, people canceled almost all social activities. Long-term self-accompaniment has made many people feel uncomfortable and even caused different degrees of psychological problems. I can’t help but reflect on the fact that the connection between nature and people has grown far apart in the booming digital age. If we have to live a semi-isolated life indefinitely, how can we resolve the problem of the loss of connection between people and nature?
People who are in quarantine just like isolated islands, floating on the seemingly infinite ocean. ISLANT represents the "connection island" between individual human beings and small nature.
ISLANT POEM TREELAND : The tree island is a moving primitive forest, which symbolizes connection. The life in the jungle hides behind the bushes. They never meet, but they communicate with each other by the power of the trees. The trees are connected to each other and also connecting every life in the forest. WISDOM FRUIT : On this island is full of wisdom fruit which symbolizes thinking. When the sea breeze blows and the tsunami ravages. The life on the island will eat the wisdom fruit to solve disasters and rebuild their homes. VOLCANOES : Volcanoes mean destruction, but also the birth of life. The earth trembles, the mountains shake, and hot magma spurts out, burning everything. But stronger life also begins to regenerate under the volcanic ash. LIFETOWER : No one knows when it was built, No one knows who is building it, Only know that it is constantly getting taller, it means growth. It wants to break through the clouds and go to a higher place to embrace the sun, air and starlight.
