Phantom

2022
Sleeping bag, blue tape, anti-climb temporary fence panel, thermoplastic hi-vis black and yellow fence feet, fence coupler, hollow fiber, wood, steel

200 × 400 × 400 cm

This work combined ghosts, mummies, sleeping bags, hazmat suits, and fences, creating a space that resembled a digital model devoid of a sense of time and place.

As an epilogue to the phantom characteristics of the pandemic, it encapsulated the outbreak and development of the virus, along with the troubles and restrictions it caused. It objectively and coldly pointed to reality, implying death, relating to civilization, and associating with discipline.


In addition to the nine figures in the exhibition space, another figure was placed on the link bridge on the upper floor of the building. Like a phantom in concept, it overlooked everyone below from above, though few noticed its presence.
