The chief purpose of the project is to create a swing set as an art installation that would encourage people to be silent and meditate as they sit and swing. It will provoke people to sit and think about the meaning of their life. I chose the universe as the background of my subject is not just because the universe is the beginning and end of our cognition, but also after experiencing a busy life in the past few years and plagued by the epidemic in 2020, I think people need a space which is interactive to meditate, to remember the beauty of childhood, and to enjoy the current life, and the best of the future.The audio and video installation on the swing would be the provocation as it would ask philosophical questions that people do not get to be asked normally.
