Artist Wu Guiqing was deeply influenced by the use of neon lights in the later stages of the Pop Art Movement, hanging 20 neon signs in the air, using electronic timing programs and electronic components, selecting different time nodes for light flashing within 15 minutes, and creating Pop Pop itself with a visual that jumped out of reality.
Inspired by Andy Warhol's print "Flowers", the knitted relief work "37 Degrees Celsius" is inspired by Andy Warhol's print , and the artist UPUP STUDIO tries to use the production action of anti-pop art to deconstruct and reflect on the large-scale industrial era from a contemporary perspective.
