1. Drooping sculpture
These works droop, bundle and ooze, keep the trace of their making in hands-on approach, which help these works take on an organic, malleable and permanent form. The first sculpture remind me of the figure of giant whale and the uterus from a vulnerable mother. The second one is a famous piece from Alberto Giacometti. His figure is extremely tall and slender, with an eroded, heavily-worked surface. Many parts of a figure is reduces to its minimum, however the end of limbs, breasts, and lower abdomen is abundant and tangible. The head is like a knife. The reconstruction of this human figure help to convey the attitude of the artist towards human beings.
2. Caustic reflection in my bathroom
3. My little fiddle
The caress of a feather vs the rough machine with its sensual qualities. Remind me of two books: Beyond the Pleasure Principle by Sigmund Freud and The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera.
4. Bible
13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.
14 People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own.
15 If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return.
16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them. — Hebrews 11.13-16
