In the labyrinthine hutongs of Beijing, French artist Guibog has become a local legend, blending Parisian flair with Chinese ingenuity. For over 20 years, he’s transformed forgotten wires, clocks, and gadget parts into mesmerizing sound sculptures that hum, click, and sing. 🎻🔮
Dubbed the 'Sound Alchemist' by neighbors, Guibog scours flea markets for 'treasures' others overlook. His studio? A converted Beijing courtyard where cassette tapes dance with circuits to create beats that feel both retro and futuristic. Fans describe his work as 'music from another dimension'—perfect for a generation raised on VR and vintage vinyl.
'It’s like hacking technology to tell stories,' Guibog says, tweaking a speaker made from 1990s stereo components. His installations now draw global creators to the hutongs, proving sustainability can sound incredible. 🎧✨
Beyond the art, his story mirrors a cultural exchange millennials love: a foreign artist finding home in China’s capital, breathing life into its historic alleys one circuit board at a time.
