Abstract

Negative Shanshui investigates pressing ecological concerns through Eastern aesthetics. In the interactive artwork, the participant transforms a serene Shanshui into a disturbing reflection of the environmental crisis through their embodied interaction. Through AI imaginary synthesis, the participant distorts the idealized landscape (i.e., Shanshui) with their gaze in real-time and gradually reveals a wasteland. It encapsulates the audience in an ongoing narrative of the clash between humanity and nature, sparking contemplation of their negative impact and fostering ecological awareness.
