任何形式的死亡
Start collecting since May, 2020
I use my phone to take photos of every death I encountered except for human beings since quarantine. It all traced back to the moment that I executed a fly.
To keep the death “fresh”, each of them is sealed together with a bag of desiccant into food storage bags. The deaths are placed at the relative heights of discovery, most are at the ground level. The deaths are tossed to the road effortlessly, out of eye level. Overlook is a privileged perspective of human beings. By looking at the ground, the audience are exposed to the unnecessary and uncomfortable presence. Here, I’m exploring the verticality that a human persists, and the geometry and selectivity of the concept of death under the dominance and dictatorship of humans.

Its concept emerges from my response to a lifetime sensitivity to high frequency sound. This ‘excessive hearing’ triggers physiologic and emotional feelings - anxiety, timidity, need to escape - which led to the form of this project as an artistic metaphor of “my fear” and “my courage to face it.”

Time is stretchable. Senses trigger flashbacks, flashbacks are extracted from memories, and memories interfere with the senses. Past, present, and future are interconnected like a manifold, a convergence of multiple dimensions of time. To connect these dots, Joan Grant reveals this piece of a puzzle in her book Winged Pharaoh: a far memory book: “for where I am is within and beyond Time, for it is the center of a circle where past, present, and future join and are eternal.”
