With Throw a Dice, a site-specific, permanent work  created for the entrance of Palazzo Diedo, Liu Wei  continues his exploration of sculpture, architectural  settings, and the human figure. Welcoming visitors  into an immersive environment filled with fantastical  animals, this new installation, at once dreamlike and  functional, expands on the artist’s ongoing philosophical  investigation of what it means to be human. Taking  inspiration from the architectural context, the work  collapses the distance between past and present.
