"Homework for Seminar" is a site-specific work that I created and presented during the critique seminar for my university subject on May 14, 2019. The piece was performed in front of my classmates and lecturers who attended the seminar.
Starting from May 4th, 2019, I used charcoal to practice drawing on one canvas per day until the day of the seminar, after abandoning my initial idea for the class presentation because I lacked inspiration. I didn't want to create a work without a meaningful concept just to submit to the seminar. However, I also feared that failing to submit anything would result in failing the subject. Therefore, on the day of the seminar, I walked into the classroom and placed a printed label next to the stack of canvases to signify the completion of the work. To me, this piece serves as a reflection of the anxiety I experienced as a student and is a true representation of that time in my life.
《作业》是我于2019年5月14日为大学课程的艺术批判研讨课所创作和呈现的一个特定场地作品。作品在研讨课上向参与的同学和讲师展示。
从2019年5月4日开始,我使用木炭每天在一块画布上练习绘画,我认真的画满了画布的每一个角落,一直刻苦练习到研讨课当天。真实原因其实是因为我没有创作灵感,并且在交作业前的一个礼拜放弃了最初为了展示而生搬硬凑的想法。我不想为了提交作品而创作一个没有意义的作品。但是我也担心不交作品会导致科目不及格。因此,在研讨课当天,我走进教室,将一张印有标签的纸张放在这些天完成的练习画布堆的旁边,表示这个作品的完成。对我来说,这个作品代表了我作为学生所经历的焦虑,是我生命中那段时光的真实反映。
