Public Art Proposal for National Palace Museum, South branch, invited competition.
The proposal is a mound of indigenous flowers, inspired by the colors and shapes of Tang Dynasty landscape painting and more in general Chinese fine arts. The landscape and flower colors will be constantly changing over seasons, providing a sense of time and constant novelty to the experience of the public art. An hypogeum space with a window to the sky also elaborate on the passage of time and the seasons, therefore creating a land art piece that engage viewer through many temporalities and perspectives.

Opening Public Art Project - Aurora Ice Rink, in Noke Mall, Taipei. Together with BIAS Architects.
#Auroraicerink #NOKE忠泰樂生活 #忠泰樂生活 #極光冰場 #taipeipublicart #極光冰場AURORAICERINK

Environmental light box installation at the indoor skating rink in Taipei. The colors come from the Aurora Borealis, a natural phenomen occurring close to the Arctic circle. This is so that the public art, evokes blocks of ice floating under the changing colors of aurora borealis.  Depending on where the viewer is, the colors and pattern of the art piece warp, expanding the ways in which one might perceive and experience it.

lezhnina







Born in Kazan, Maria Lezhnina`s experience is particularly diverse, falling between landscape research projects, teaching knowledge of space to the children with the Finnish school ARKKI, and working for design practices in Switzerland, Italy, and Taiwan. This interdisciplinary background has triggered her interest in cross cultural reading of space. Indeed, today, her work aims at altering perception of environment, either through reflexive physicality or unusual architectural structure, being characterized by a deep-rooted interest in the relationship between architecture, landscape, and human perception. While her work has been exhibited in various venues, mainly Taiwan, China, Switzerland, and Italy, currently she is working on various large scale public art projects in Taiwan.
