“Light listens to everything Turning silent prayers into invisible responses”


Medium: Light, fog, AI language model
Dimensions: Variable
Year: 2025

Collaboration with Shaomin Shen, Shaoshan Liu,
and Tongyi Shen.


Three beams of light create a timeless, eternal Theatre of Light. Upon stepping onto the stage and engaging with the light, mist and light intertwine, offering an immersive experience in the flow and narration of light. The Light of the Cosmos responds to the boundless scale of time, vast and profound; The Light of Reality mirrors unpredictable changes in this era, sharp and intense; The Light of Divinity touches the unspeakable truth, reflecting revelations. In the crossing of light, the three overlap, converge, forming multiple responses.

The Theater of Light maps the parameters of light —brightness, color temperature, rhythm, intensity, onto language, emotions, perception, exploring the concept of “Light Language”. It challenges established frameworks of communication and understanding, creating a non-verbal/symbolic language system. From intellectual cognition to embodied perception, light embodies intelligence and expresses emotion, fostering new forms of communication.

The light is also an experiment of the concept of “Light Robot”, which breaks free from physical form, not completely virtual. It’s between the concrete and the abstract, the real and the virtual, the material and the spiritual. This raises further questions: can intelligent robots exist beyond physical body, instead residing in abstract realms such as waves, fields, air, or light? It suggests a whole new way of existence
