《人迹丛林》局部 李操 玻璃钢,PVC管 400×400×270cm 2007.6
我将日常生活中必不可少但又最容易忽视的物体用到了我的作品中,比如马桶、洗手盆、小便器等。它们包含了很多的个人信息,和我们有密切的关系。它们是一个我们和我们身体废弃物的分离点。它们将我们身体的物质信息带到了另一个空间。作品中的这些部件都是按照比例把真实的物体缩小,包括“接头”。我努力用泥塑的方式和写实的技巧,让它变成视觉上的现成品,看起来真实可信。但是我以方型阵列的方式将它们组织起来,形成一个整体,让我们只能被动的处于作品之外,拉大了观众和作品的距离。让我们熟悉又陌生地窥视着这个空间,窥视着我们的生活,窥视着人与人的关系,产生了一种莫名的孤寂感。
I use the objects which are indispensable but most easily to be neglected in the daily life in my work, such as toilet bowl, wash basins, urinals and so on. They contain a lot of personal information and they have a close relationship with us. They are the points at which our physical waste is excreted from our body. They bring the material information of our body into another space. The components in the work including the joints are proportionately reduced to the miniature of the real objects. I try to use clay and the realistic skills to make it a visual ready-made, which looks authentic. But I organize them in the form of square arrays to form an entirety, making us passively outside the work, which widens the distance between the audience and the work. This allows us to look into this space and spy on our life and the relationships of people in both a familiar and an unfamiliar way.
