Lance Winn's Talk

Lance Winn from University of Delaware works through drawing, performance/video, installation, an recently robotics, to explore the types of distortion that happen when we traslate and reproduce information.

I liked that scattered letters, no matter it has a meaning or not, could be art.
Feeling of Dadaism, I realized that the current of modern art is getting to cover the broader part of our life. Winn also showed some of his video clips. I remeber one of them, which was filmimg of smoke coming in and out consistantly from factory chimneys, like breating animals.
In somehow, the video reminded me of smoking people who smoke cigarrette and unconsciously breathe the chemicals into their vernarable organs. And also it seemed to me the art work try to warn us the hidden danger of air pollution that we produce everyday.
