The Underground is a self-contained internal circulation system created by recombining water systems. During my wanderings in China, I have seen various exposed water systems countless times. Due to many historical and social legacy issues, the water systems of many old houses were built later. This is a common problem in many developing countries. Some of the steel pipes wandering outside have been repaired and patched, and some have been completely dismantled, leaving a pile of discarded parts. This suddenly made me feel familiar, and it was very similar to my situation of wandering outside, so i restructured this situation. I used the scrap steel pipes abandoned by the factory, cut and spray-painted them, and continuously extended the other end of the pipe until the closed loop of the self-system was completed.

This work also started to explore the dilemma of the individual existing in the overall system. When the individual is stripped and eliminated by the collective society, where will “he” go?
