- Michelle said she’s drawn to the sound, like tap dripping. She also asked if I wanted to add written element to the work. I think the repetition of the sound adds the effect of annoyance, frustration and anxiety. And it also shows the passage of the time as well. I don’t really want to add texts into the videos because I think it’s too straightforward and directive.
- Alison said she felt the body was like a robot, not being able to operate/recognise to be a person in the world. And she liked the colour. I’m glad she felt this way because that’s what I want to express. The body is without mind and it relies on other to direct it. The condition that I cannot accept the disconnection from other who my mind is attached to disables the functionality of myself as a cultural being in the world. I think the colour conveys the uncomfortable and suppressed feeling.
- Yunqiu asked if there would be an end. There’s no end. I just want to show the moment of the state of being stuck/trapped while the body just cannot let it go, which further suggests its restlessness and the desire to be directed.
Wanted to ask Craig how he decided on the patterns and shapes some of his cards.
