description

The installation uses several still objects for metaphorizing six independent but adjacent spaces. Those objects, which could be a reflection of the old time, are forsaken memory keepers . They are silent, unless being touched will they start to mutter. Since they murmur in a whispering way, participants need to pick them up and get close enough to listen as well as to feel the texture of those daily clips.

The work functions as a serious of living organism with or without the presence and interactions of spectators. When spectators have no action, the installation create its own dialogue by constructing an abstract and intangible space which symbolize a si-he-yuan (a chinese style residence with yard). And when participants penetrate into the work space and interact with the objects, a reallife context will be substantialized by sound.
