Sisyphus

3D Rrendered Moving Image Installation

Cao Shu's installation "Sisyphus" is built with a computer graphics program and highlights the artist's fascination with the relationship between the visions of memory and virtual technology. Stories, rumours, scenarios, and technology-like visuals blend realism and falsehood.The technology opens up perceptions that were previously inaccessible to any medium. Memories of flashbacks to the artists childhood in China exist in a row of 25 frames and with no linear narrative. Thorough its title, Cao Shu describes memory as being like the myth of Sisyphus, who was condemned to repeat forever the same meaningless task of pushing a boulder up a mountain, only to see it roll down again.

西西弗斯

3D数字模拟影像装置

“西西弗斯”，由大小不等的数十个GIF组成，这些微妙变动的暂停场景，截取自同一引擎模拟并渲染的数字球体（Sphere）世界。不断闪回的25帧，没有线性叙事，如同西西弗斯的故事，石头到了山顶就结束，不存在起因和结局。这些无人的角落好像是某个间隙或bug，存在于更大的不可见场景之中。
