KILLING ME SOFTLY
2017
Shoe, Aluminium, Iron, Wood, LED, Circuitry, Arduino, DC Motors, Trestles
Dimension Variable
​
Inspired  by  the  high  degree  of  abstraction demonstrated in "Killing Me Softly", the artist synergises and suffuses the essence of kineticism into its footgears with an unconcealed defiance to the concept of mortal exhaustion and regimented authority. Multiple harsh yet rapid successive contacts between the kinetic prongs and the circuitry encasing the footgears are engineered to generate blinding sparks. It serves to mirror the systematic routines of mechanical machineries and its unearthly prowess to deconstruct tangible and intangible humanly possessions.
​The illuminated regions reveal the tenacious inclination to be in a constant state of metamorphosis with ORSQ.

Rifqi Amirul Rosli is an artist in Singapore whose works often deals with the in-between of things: states of suspension, transition, liminality. He probes into the construction of personal boundaries and speculative states that defines one’s purpose and sentimentality towards a place. He describes the personal connection one has to a physical, or an imagined place, which may not necessarily be a typical home, but could relate to a sense of familiarity, a tradition or a regular activity that becomes a part of one’s identity.
