Wang Haiyang｜The Birth of the Word, to the Demise of the Bird｜2014-2018｜Trailer
Save to My OculaThe Birth of The Word to the Demise of The Bird is an artistic effort commenced in 2014 as a series of pastel works.
The manipulation of language is at the core of this work as the semiotic and linguistic connections between the characters move the plot along in a visual wordplay of double entendres.
