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.
