Strandbeest runs on the sandy beaches of the Netherlands with the wind as the power source. The entire body is shaped with a yellow plastic tube, and its physics-based movement is smooth and organic, as like living things. They were created by Dutch artist Theo Jansen (1948\u2013) to solve the problem of rising sea levels in his homeland. Aiming to survive on the sandy beach independently even after the artist’s death, Strandbeest will acquire functions such as walking, turning, and danger detection, and will acquire a system for adapting to various environments. Life forms that have continued to evolve while repeating life and death and inheriting genes and genetic information offer us new possibilities across the existing categories of art and science. This exhibition introduces more than 10 works including a strand beast with a total length of over 10 meters. You can also experience how it actually moves.<\/p>\n
