They embody the perpetual transformation of the world and the vacuity of shapes and forms. Elusive, fluid, and ephemeral, they open an infinite field of possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>A vision conceived curing confinement<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The first idea for this project emerged in 2020, during the confinement imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. One day, while lying on her couch, Dali had a dreamlike experience. Some key elements of this dream left a deep impression on her: a vast, white sky\u2014luminous yet without a blinding glow\u2014and majestic celestial trees whose roots sprouted from the tops of Buddha\u2019s heads, some white, others black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To Dali, this dream symbolizes the dualities on the path to individuation in Buddhism: being and non-being, transcendence and earthly reality. This dichotomy echoes Jung\u2019s notion of the Self, described as both empty and full, representing the individual\u2019s psyche as a whole (Jung, 1983\/1951).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We often perceive the world through oppositions: good and evil, beauty and ugliness, sacred and profane. Yet, like clouds in perpetual transformation, the boundaries between these notions remain fluid. Recognizing this non-duality inspired Dali to share her experience through artistic expression\u2014as a gift\u2014inviting others to explore an essential freedom: the realization that every being is already awakened (<em>Buddha<\/em> in Sanskrit). The journey to individuation is not fixed, it is rather a moving manifestation of awakening itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Observing the clouds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-5-B-540x720.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18808\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-5-B-540x720.jpg 540w, https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-5-B.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>&nbsp;Dali Wu documenting cloud formations, June 16, 2021.

Unlike On Kawara\u2019s <em>Date Paintings<\/em> (1966\u20132014), whose mechanical aesthetics might seem oppressive, these introspective observations\u2014mostly made between 6 p.m. and 9pm\u2014were recorded using a variety of media, including dry pastels, acrylic paint, collage, newspapers, and other everyday materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By favoring tangible media to express her subjectivity, Dali simultaneously captures the versatile, ever-changing nature of cloud formations and her own emotional fluctuations. These drawings thus become a record of the subtle choreography between the inner and outer worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The evolving archive of drawings is available in digital format <a href=\"https:\/\/1drv.ms\/f\/s!AuEzFmK8llrBgcsVeMFMxJBModhK6g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">at this link<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-6-B.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18810\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Exhibition at the Notre-Dame-de-Gr\u00e2ce Art Center.

Inspired by their presence, she designed an interactive device in the form of a folding screen, reinterpreting these neglected materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Later, she designed a second polyptych screen, this time made of transparent Plexiglas, onto which interactive digital projections could be displayed. The choice of the material was influenced by the omnipresence of Plexiglas panels in public spaces during the pandemic. On this translucent surface, she often saw her own blurred reflection \u2014 an ethereal image that caught her eye. In it, she perceived a paradoxical sense of simultaneous proximity and distance between individuals, characteristic of this unique period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18814\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Technical design of the folding Plexiglas screen, including dimensions, specifications, and human scale, 2022. \u00a9 Dali Wu.<\/sup><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Exhibition dynamics<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The interactive digital installation operates as follows: when no audience is present, the transparent folding screen remains inactive. Upon detecting a presence through the surveillance camera integrated into the installation, animated clouds emerge, projected onto its surface. These projections incorporate silhouettes of the audience as remanent images in constant transformation. Over time, these forms evolve into &#8220;electronic clouds&#8221; with psychedelic colors, blending thermal captures of the audience into layered visual compositions that play in an endless loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a viewer remains still, the clouds gradually dissipate, revealing a 3D animation generated by a particle system\u2014a &#8220;revelation tree&#8221;\u2014which progressively fills the folding screen with white.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-9.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18816\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Screenshot of the first version of the revelation tree animation (2D animation), 2022. \u00a9 Dali Wu.<\/sup><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Figure-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18818\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Screenshot of the second version of the revelation tree (3D animation), 2023. \u00a9 Dali Wu.<\/sup><br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video aligncenter\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/hexagram.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/Video-capturee-par-le-public-exposition-2023.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sup>Video captured by the audience, exhibition at the Notre-Dame-de-Gr\u00e2ce Art Center, 2023.
