water says
Today I took out the "Chinese Art" that I bought a long time ago. The second work is Song Dong's "Printing Water". In the photo, he is standing in the Lhasa River at the waist level, holding a square inscribed with the word "water" in his hand. The big seal is constantly stamped in the water. Zhang Ailing called her collection of works "Rumors", which also means words written on water. People instinctively know that their traces will not be long, but they still have to stamp and write on the water, which is a Sisyphus-like attempt and anxiety.
There is nothing that man does that is not Sisyphus.
The watery nature of the internet is even more pronounced in China. Water can be blocked, evaporated, and water can leave no trace. In China, there are many people who are hindered and evaporated without leaving a trace. The nature of government water is also more pronounced in China. Water can be washed away, it can be swept away, it does not bypass the weak, it does not pity the innocent. The dam of Hong Kong had already left a gap in 1984. In recent years, it has been repeatedly washed away, and the crack has become larger and larger, and will eventually be washed away. This flood has enormous potential, and someone's stupidity fuels the storm. And China has so many people, so many stupid.
The artist's nerves are sensitive, his skin is naked, and he can see the distortion and alienation of people. Ai Weiwei is Ai Qing's son, and his name is now taboo in China, but his father still loved the land deeply in Xinjiang when he was exiled. But man does not grow out of the earth after all. People call the land mother, but do not recognize it. People also call the motherland mother, but the motherland does not recognize it. People are looking everywhere for their way home, but there is fog in front of them.
People regret only when they could have done something. But when things are unavoidable, there is only sadness. When faced with floods, people have this kind of sadness. Floods take away people's time, thoughts, freedom and dignity. The modern flood is more orderly, it is the assembly line of the factory, people line up, orderly, and are swept away. Is there any idea. If a person is trapped in an iron house without windows, wake him up and know that this is an iron house, and he has to struggle and break. But when people are trapped in the illusion woven by commodities, consumption and ideology, trapped in the Huxley-style Brave New World, trapped in dreams, how can people wake up? How do you wake up a person from a dream. He seemed so awake in his dream.
