 Light is an important element for human life. It not only brightens our world but also shapes our feelings, senses, and culture. In this artwork, wind and light work together as the main forces. They move the installation in a natural and simple way, showing the invisible power of nature. This use of natural energy makes us think about the relationship between humans and nature.In modern society, cities are growing fast. Tall buildings replace open skies. Artificial lights make our world bright at all times, and technology separates us from nature. Do we still remember the sunlight shining through the leaves? Do we notice how the wind shapes our surroundings? When our lives are full of screens and machines, can we still feel nature like before? This artwork is a response to these changes. It moves with the wind, and light creates changing colors on its surface. Viewers experience nature through this movement. As the wind blows, light and shadow dance, reflect, and shift. It feels like nature is speaking to us. This reminds us that even though society is moving fast, nature still follows its own rhythm around us.   So why and how we can see color？
  Site Selection Strategy The installation will be placed on an open lawn. This location was chosen because the installation depends on natural elements like wind and sunlight. Since the windmill is powered by wind, an open space ensures a steady and strong wind supply without being blocked by tall buildings or trees. This allows the windmill to keep spinning and maintain its dynamic effect. At the same time, enough sunlight is important for the Dichroic Film in the rotating disc, enhancing its light and color effects for a more vibrant visual experience. s   Design process  How Work?

 Floor Plan & Elevation   Material Selection & Application Wind Turbine: The main framework of the wind turbine is constructed from carbon fiber and coated with reflective paint, reducing the overall weight while aligning with the materiality of the supporting components. All supporting parts of the wind turbine are made from aluminum alloy, which is lighter and more durable than steel. The turbine features hollow sections made from dichroic panels, allowing sunlight to interact with the openings at various angles, creating dynamic light effects. Outer Frame: The entire frame is crafted from aluminum alloy, offering both strength and aesthetic appeal. The outer ring is decorated with dichroic paper, providing a visually dynamic effect as light changes with the angle of view. Rest Area: The seating area utilizes birch wood, known for its cost-effectiveness and attractive appearance. The light-colored wood complements the overall color scheme of the space, enhancing its natural warmth and harmony. Flooring: The flooring is made from stainless steel with an anti-slip pattern, ensuring safety while maintaining a sleek and durable surface.
