纪念品 Souvenir Back
2008装置和照片
2008, 深圳

 

该装置是一个边界围栏的一部分——长8米高4米。经过多年的日晒雨淋,它的金属框架、铁丝网和带刺的螺旋形铁丝球已锈迹斑斑。是从深圳和香港的分界线上切割下来的。而铁丝网的断口边缘却光亮崭新,表明着这个装置刚刚从历经沧桑的边界线上割下来。围栏上固定着一块锃亮的金属板,上面写着“深圳纪念品”,是典型纪念明信片的字体。 在这个装置的后方墙上,是一幅这个边界的全景照片,边界在风景中蜿蜒。仔细看,这个边界上缺掉了一小块儿。
在观众的眼前有一个特别醒目的按钮,一旦观众按下此钮,系统就会立刻播报该观众被洗脑成功,成了一个好人。同时洗脑机转动停止。如果观众不按下此钮,该装置就会一直旋转不停。

Onsite is a 8 by 4 meter part of a borderline fence. It's metal structure, mesh wire and barbed fence have become rusty after years of exposure to sun and rain. It looks as if it had just recently been cut out of the borderline between the two cities: Shenzhen and Hong Kong. On its edges the cuts through the wires seem fresh and contrast with the time-worn appearance of the whole. A shiny metal plate is fixed to fence reading "Souvenir from Shenzhen" in a typeface resembling that of souvenir postcards.

Behind this object, pasted to the wall is a very large panoramic photograph of the borderline as it winds through the landscape. Very obviously there is one piece missing in the fence.
