"Brave insect" is my favorite work in the GDAD show. When I came
to the showroom, my eyes were attracted from this work. It looks like a head of
goat with white skin, but has a little difference. After read the introduction,
I found the work is totally unexpected, and very interesting. Firstly, the
work's name is brave insect, which is hard to associate with big size of the
work. Secondly, the designer comparing himself to an insect living in modern
society, and has to feeling everything, sensitively to protect himself. He is smaller
than a human and bigger than insect. The designer use a sensitive way to
perform his idea, it is easy to make sense and also full creativity. Finally, I
asked the designer why he chose the wool and cotton as the materials. He told
me, the touch of wool and cotton are similar with human’s skin. If a shirt is a
symbol of sociality, it seems just an insect’s shell as well.
I think this work is not only express designer’s feeling about modern
society, but also explored a weak situation that most of people living in the modern
society, with much anxious and sensitive, even fear, but still have a hope in their small universe.
