Project Description:
This project was the author’s undergraduate graduation work. The entire project consists of two parts—an installation and an animation—using dinosaurs as a temporal and spatial thread to explore their transformations from ancient times to the present.
One aspect focuses on the changes of the dinosaurs themselves: from death, to decomposition, to being remolded into dinosaur toys and re-entering everyday life. The other aspect examines the shifting symbolic meaning of dinosaurs in human society, from sacred creatures to the familiar dinosaurs known to the public today.
The work aims to present the mystery of dinosaurs and the cyclical nature of time.
