Bookcase in the Wall 墙中书, 2014

In this work, I was looking for a rhythm between language (book titles) and specific site (this abandoned space).
The red bricks exposed from worn walls seemed to resemble the spine of books. One would wonder, what kind of book collection should be found in a space (study room) like this? My impulse for this work grew out of this curiosity. Some of the book titles are from real existing books, but most texts come from my own poems and writings, or flash of thoughts I captured on this site.
在这件作品中,我试图寻找一种语言(书名)和特定空间(这处废墟)之间的节奏。
裸露的破败墙砖像是最好的书脊,在这样的空间(书房)该有对应的“藏书”吧——这是我的初始想法。这些书有些是挪用真实存在的书的名字,有些则是从我自己的诗句中摘取,也有少数是在现场即兴编造出来。
