"Curate No More" - Sketching 《策你老毛》 之 「素描」:

(2) 《策你老毛》之 「素描」“Curate No More” --- Sketching

內容:100星期以來,共向「油街實現」寄了一百封明信片給自己收啟,明信片以近似週記形式書寫,主要記述自己每週重要親身經歷。文字之中,會畫出一個至若干個黑點,單看以為是平常寫錯字而塗去錯字的黑色塊,但當把所有明信片一次過以單格動畫形式逐張觀看,就會看見那些黑點不斷移動和聚合,如果黑點是一個個體,人的生活莫過如此。 另外,所有明信片的正面圖案,是九年前,2006年時,一班中學生對香港另一個官方管理的藝術村---「牛棚藝術村」的想像。

Content: Gum has sent 100 postcards to “Oi!”, addressed to himself, during the 100 weeks of the current project. Besides weekly diary about the artist’s important personal experiences in that week, each postcard also consists of one to a few black dots. Without careful examination, one may misunderstand those dots as crossed-over words or simply dirt. However, by reviewing all the postcards in order: one after one, a viewer will find out that the black dots converge and diverge to form a sequence. If the black dot is an individual, such a path is suggesting that life is no more than just this.

The other sides of the postcards are the imaginative designs of ‘Cattle Depot Artist Village’ (another artist village run by the government) by a group of secondary school students in 2006.
