Work Description / 作品阐述:
This installation mediates a vibrating dialogue between dying insects and humans. The insects’ fading lives unfold on a small display, viewed through an insect screen from a repurposed window. The faint tremors of their final moments are amplified into an intense buzzing that rattles the glass and windows. By magnifying what is usually unheard and unseen, the work invites the audience to confront the tension between fragility and agency as these insects cross into the human realm.
这件有声视频装置呈现了弥留之际的昆虫与人类之间震颤的持续对话。昆虫逐渐消逝的生命,在小型显示屏上被放慢、被窗户所遮挡。观众必须透过改造窗户上装置的防虫网,才能窥见这些画面。它们生命终章的微弱颤动,被放大为剧烈的嗡鸣,震得玻璃与墙壁哗啦作响。此刻,窗户如同一座祭坛。该作品通过聚焦和放大即将死去虫子的微弱声音,指引观众直面昆虫在人类日常生活中的生存斗争。
