    - To kill the triangle.

    This experiment is like an assassination to the tyrant, a response to Bataille’s Acéphale in a sculpture way.

    I ask my friends to write down their initial thoughts about sculpture.

    Heaviness, density, gravity, time, existence. Maybe sculpture is an existing question toward its confronters.

    However, just as the cut-off technique wish to break the sequence of writing, I wish to overthrow all these

    appearance (heaviness, density. Container of gravity and time) toward sculpture.

    All the movements in sculpture, seems to move it into the direction of installation, and in creating an

    immersive experience with the audience. (Holding up a gun toward my head, pulling the trigger in order to

    install a certain feeling in me.)

    I believe there is a silent quality in sculpture. Different from theatre or spoken object and this silence is not

    about its materiality, but the immaterially in sculpture, not as sculpted form, but interaction with space,

    time.

    What is sculpture? I think about this question not questioning its form, but rather a question about objects

    created by the living things. It is the question that makes me think about the anthill, the electric circuit, as well as the person who put his handprint onto the cave.

    Objects + space = energy.

    There is a coincident with people and space. I believe that this coincident could be psychological

    - 杀死三角形。

    这个简略的空间实验是以雕塑的方式对巴塔耶《Acéphale》(无头人)的回应。

    “重量、密度、重力、时间、存在。”也许雕塑对其观看者投射出了一个关于存在的疑问。此外,如达达主义的诗歌横

    断打破书写的顺序一样,我希望推翻所有雕塑的表象(沉重、密度、重力容器和时间),即雕塑永恒的错觉。我希望雕

    塑呈现出一种柔软,易碎,临时,未完成的特质。

    我相信雕塑具有无声的特质。它区别于戏剧或有声对象,这种沉默并不指雕塑的物质性,而是雕塑中的非物质性:与空

    间、时间的互动。

    雕塑是什么?也许重点并不在质疑雕塑的形式问题,而是另一种思考物与它创作者的关系。这个问题让我想到了蚁穴、

    电路以及在洞穴上按手印的人。

    物体 + 空间 = 能量。

    人与空间之间有一种巧合。我认为这种巧合可能是心理上的

    Absent Gallery:

    How would you describe your creation?

    你会如何讲述自己的创作?

     

    陈一:

    开始物品探索的时间并不长,想尝试根据更多的实验探索物品感知上的力量。努力尝试摆脱任何一种完成艺术品论调的雕塑,摆脱雕塑沉重的印象,同时不陷于装置或环境艺术中。Started object exploration not long ago, wanted to try to explore the power of objects perceptually based on more experimentation. Trying hard to get rid of any kind of sculpture that completes the artwork argument, getting rid of the impression that sculpture is heavy, while not getting caught up in installations or environmental art.

     

     

     

    Absent Gallery:

    What factors have influenced your creation?

    请谈谈你的艺术创作受哪些因素影响?

     

    陈一:

    与个人所处的空间,状态有关系。尤其在于物品的实验中,可能物件与空间所产生的偶发性是重要的。

    There is a relationship with the space, the state of the individual. Especially in experiments with objects, it is possible that the episodic nature of the object and space is important.

     

     

    Absent Gallery:

    What are your upcoming plans or expectations for the artwork?

    未来对作品有什么计划或期待?

     

    陈一:

    正在尝试探索一些并第一印象中并非那么物质性的物质材料,比如细菌与微生物。

    Attempts are being made to explore material materials that are not so materialistic at first glance, such as bacteria and microbes.

     

     

    Absent Gallery:

    Please use one word to describe "Prelude". or describe in one word how you feel about "Prelude".

    请用一个词汇描述“序幕”或者 用一个词汇描述对“序幕”的感受/想法。
