当艺术家住在墨尔本时,他在街上发现了一个标志,并拍了一张照片。然后他注意到街上到处都是这种标志, 有些是矩形的,有些是方形的。然而,无论是问周围的人还是在互联网上搜索,他都找不到这些标志代表什么信息。

他开始每天早上外出,拍摄他所在社区的这些标志的照 片,一直到黄昏才回家。然后他用这些照片制作了两个录像。

这些标志可能与抽象绘画或雕塑有关,背后可能有大量的时间、体力和技术投入。但表面上,它们看起来都很简单,只是很好看。

While living in Melbourne, the artist encountered a curious street sign that caught his eye, compelling him to photograph it. This experience sparked his awareness of the multitude of signs scattered throughout the city, varying in shape from rectangular to square. Intrigued, he sought to uncover their meanings but found no answers, whether through asking locals or researching online. This enigmatic presence of the signs became a focal point of his work, embodying the mystery and ubiquity of urban symbols.

Driven by this fascination, he began going out every morning, capturing images of these signs in his neighborhood until twilight. This dedication culminated in the creation of two videos composed of his photographs.

These signs, while potentially connected to abstract paintings or sculptures and representing significant temporal, physical, and technical efforts, appear simple on the surface—yet they remain aesthetically pleasing and evocative.
