This project is based on the experience of tropical fish farming that have spent for 14 years My first-round tropical fish breeder in northern China. I specialize in artificial breeding and disease control of tropical fish for Pterophyllum. I independently designed a biological filtration system for tropical fish and won the first prize of the 28th Youth Scientific Research Innovation Competition in Shandong Province, China. I am eager to extend the meaning of the influence of spiritual support on individuals. These tropical fish that have been with me for many years are not only pets for mte but more of a spiritual sustenance that gives me strength in dim time. However, in an accident my laboratory was destroyed and I lost all the fish At that time, I think I lost anything Although I lost all the fish in the accident, I still think the fish are still alive just in a different space from us In order to get rid of the mental state of losing myself I began to contact Christianity and became a cultural learner. In the process of reading the Bible I began to try tp re-believe in hope and light. I In those the works, I tried to combine the linear expression of Chinese traditional painting techniques with the mechanical form, hoping to convey surrealism with oriental characteristics through the works I hope that these "fishes" accompanying me can form an eternal form like machinery. So, I gave the fish a semi-mechanized half-life form and let them live in a space full of hope and light. Sci-fi machinery as a medium to reflect the equipment used in the process of fish farming, through the composition of the Chinese classical aesthetic square circle re splitting the objective mechanical structure to re-organize, showing the cycle and symbol of eternal. I want to pass this project to the public In today's fast-growing technology and economy, people's "spiritual sustenance" is also an important part of building a non material level of society.
