Description

This proposal art manifests the artist's concern for human-nature relations. The idea is that five robots will imitate humans to urinate in the pond where fish, shrimp, and ducks live. Animals will be agonized by the toxic water and beat the water. The sound of beating water will trigger robots to chorus "Tomorrow will be better" in different languages. At the end, animals will die in the toxic environment, which creates an ironic contrast between the chorus and the fact that animals are dying. (Zhuocheng Jiang '26)
