400 million years ago, it was the ocean, and 400 million years later, it is the desert | pole, model paint, acrylic, raspberry pi 3b, screen, special clip | 2021 | Image source, Imagokinetics lab

This series of works are based on the principle of human binocular stereo imaging. The author simulates the viewing distance of both eyes and makes shooting and viewing equipment, so that the audience can experience the simultaneous observation of "past" and "future": the works deconstruct the physical binary structure of human eyes at the historical level, and the intentions of left and right, red and blue, perspective vanishing point and so on. In the different interpretation systems of scientific, politics and religion, tension networks have been set up respectively. The author's solo exhibition "Go to Rome" based on the historical events of missionary boumeg is generated and launched in such a relationship network.

The author simulated the viewing distance of human eyes and made the shooting equipment. In the moving images in the device, the desert and the ocean are continuous, but they are separated due to the limitations of human eyes. When the audience closes their right eyes, they will see the ocean, close their left eyes, they will see the desert, and open their eyes at the same time, they will see a three-dimensional world visually. Like a broken magnet, the red and blue poles are one. From the perspective of human geology, are deserts and oceans stretching at the same rate?

此作品系列基于人类双目立体成像的原理，作者模拟双眼的观看间距制作了拍摄与观看设备，观众借此可体验对“过去”和“未来”的同时观测：作品对于人类双眼的物理二元结构进行了一种历史层面的解构，左右、红蓝、透视灭点等意向在科学、政治与宗教的不同解释系统中，分别架设起富有张力的关系网络。作者基于传教士卜弥格历史事件的个展“去罗马”，便是在这样一种关系网络中生成展开的。

作品基于双目摄像机的原理，作者模拟人眼观看间距制作了拍摄设备。装置里流动的影像中，沙漠和海洋本身是连续一体的，却又因人类双眼的观测局限而被分离。观众闭上右眼将会看到海洋，闭上左眼将会看到沙漠，同时睁开双眼，将会看到在视觉上呈现出立体的世界。如同断裂的磁铁，红蓝两极本是一体，人类地质学之外的视角里，沙漠和海洋是否以同种速率在绵延呢？
