Intrude the exhibition and infringe the works

The self-explanatory piece covered up “Projecting Window” in 2009 Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-city Biennale of Urbanism Architecture with hundreds of Hong Kong on-street posters and advertisements – which can be found on every unimaginable parts of the city. It visioned the ultimate cityscape of man, society, or even an architectural art piece could not save itself from being intruded by advertisements, nor business acts.
In the era of consumerism and information overflow, advertisements are infringing every single slit of the city, and flooding information into the vein of town. We were forced to receive advertisements which we never intended to enjoy..

Creation, or disaster?

Our city is occupied by advertisement boards and signs, a “parasite” feeding off the face of the city – A man-made catastrophe to the city. My infringement to “Projecting Window” could be a disaster, too.

《入侵與騎劫》計劃是一次在2009年在”香港深圳城市建築雙城雙年展 2009” 展期當中的一次誇界別的藝術活動。

入侵展覽　騎劫作品

運用了在街頭搜集得來的海報，把展覽其中一件參展作品『后窗』貼滿。利用香港街招和海報的文化特性，表現與預視一個發展到極端的地步—-“毛孔都入”。即使一個建築城市展覽、也不能幸免受到了廣告的入侵、作品也不幸地被商業騎劫，無人也無力地去抵抗。
這行為反映了我們生活的城市，在消費主義與資訊爆炸的年代，廣告的入侵性已經達到無孔不入的境界，也任何地方都充斥著廣告與資訊。往往大多也是自己不希望收看，我們便”被強逼”接收廣告訊息。

是一場藝術創作？還是一場現實災難？

正如我們現在居住的城市，也正面對著四處樹立的廣告板，依附著大大小小的建築物的外牆，它們的真面目也被”寄生物”完完全全遮蓋。對於城市來說，是一種災難；是次我在展覽中對作品「后窗」所表現的行為創作而言，也是一種災難。
