Fix the Hair
(Wig, Arduino, robotic arm and comb)

The kinetic sculpture intends to depict an image about human and machine. The machine is fixing the hair like fixing anything else. The gesture of combing tells a narrative about not only power and regulation, but also caring and love. the movement is performed constantly and open to interpretation.

The project is part of a continuously developing thesis project, investigating the regulation and power image within the society. As the first step of the thesis project it surprisingly depicts an image of caring and love. It tells a story about the relationship between human and machines.
