While exploring some more recent performance artists or art in general, I came across a most interesting one. Li Wei's art is a most captivating and wild notion of a way to express the dangerous actions human beings could encounter.. or something of the like. Such as :
They don't seem to have any titles labeled to them, but to be honest do they? This is hard to look at without feeling a certain concern for the guy "hanging" outside the building, as seen with others reaching out to him. While I read the article, Wei answers a few questions for the interviewer and it is done with very precise, safe and useful wires as to show these pieces as real as possible.
The above picture shows a kind of drowning scene where the guy is face deep in water but floating their upside down. Now I'm sure some sort of tension rod is above the picture with a wire there but this is extreme to say the least. There doesn't seem to be faking of him actually being underwater. Which brings me to the point of, even though they have wires etc these people or guy are really over that roof and under that water. This artist really does go to the extreme and it is so different to me, even after witnessing many different types and many different artists. It is a showmanship of the thoughts and maybe nightmares of people brought into reality and put right in your lap.
