Moving with it.

Chinese born, New York artist Nova Jiang created this piece called ‘Landscape Abbreviated’, “a kinetic maze consisting of rotating planters to form a garden, merging the elements of nature and machine”. The installation is composed of multiple pods of greenery, controlled by a software program that continuously generates new maze patterns based on mathematical rules. The modules twirl and pivot to form ever-changing pathways that encourage visitors to change direction and viewpoints as they move through the space.

“The modified pots contain live moss collected from the sides of buildings, cracks in the pavement, subway grates and other urban nooks and crannies of new york city’s terrain, inviting the audience to interface with their environment in an interactive way”.
