loop, one channel version. 2minutes 7 seconds.
The identical impossible cages drift in slow rotation — equal in distance, endlessly orbiting like small planets caught in the same gravity.Each appears and fades at its own pace: arrival, presence, disappearance, and return.
The cage stands for the social self — the quiet structures that shape us — but it also carries a trace of freedom, a space where movement and stillness coexist.
As a screensaver, it mirrors our digital condition — time is not counted in numbers, but in orbits.
“All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts.”
------Shakespeare" As You Like It"
“退场”，一个屏保，2025 ，
五个相同的笼子在缓慢旋转，保持着等距的轨道，它们在不同的时间出现与消失——像人生的节奏：到来、停留、退场、再回归。笼子象征着“社会化的自我”——那些塑造我们、却往往无形的秩序与结构；同时，它也暗含自由的痕迹——一种在约束之中仍可流动、静止并存的空间。
作品邀请观者在观看中反思我们如何在时间、关系与自我之间不断循环。
作为屏保，这件作品也映照了当代数字生活的状态——
一种在专注与分神、安逸与束缚之间来回摆动的平静循环。
在这里，时间不以数字计量，而以轨道为形。
“整个世界就是一个舞台，
所有的男男女女不过是一些演员；
他们有他们的出场，也有他们的退场；
而一个人在他的一生中要扮演许多角色。”——莎士比亚，《皆大欢喜》
