保持微笑 Keep Smiling
单频道录像 3分30秒
2010 年 (2015 翻新拍摄)
通过作品,我向观众展示出的是我个人的一段段生命体验。《84天,84件作品》是我2010年在尤伦斯艺术中心所呈现的个展。84天,展厅每天都会增加一件新的作品,呈现了我把每天的想法和创意进行实施、展示与发布的完整创作流程。
《保持微笑》最初也是这一期间进行的创作,我面对镜头保持标准的微笑,一点点记录脸部的变化,随着时间过去,我的脸部慢慢变得僵硬,最后掉下眼泪。于是,一场微笑以哭泣作为终结。这件作品通过影像的方式记录了我应对这个时代的姿态与面貌,也展现了我内心中柔软真实的一面,从微笑着坚持到自然地落泪,观众看到的可能是无奈,但或许是坚持,并从这个影像投射到自身,从中感受每个人独特的自我。

2010 ( 2015 Reshooting )
Through my works, I showcase to the audience my personal life experiences. 84 Days, 84 Works "is my solo exhibition presented at the Ullens Center for the Arts in 2010. For 84 days, the exhibition hall will add a new work every day, presenting the complete creative process of implementing, showcasing, and publishing my daily ideas and creativity.
The original creation of 'Keep Smiling' was also carried out during this period. I maintained a standard smile in front of the camera, recording the changes in my face little by little. As time passed, my face gradually became stiff, and finally tears fell down. So, a smile ended with tears. This work records my posture and appearance in response to this era through imagery, and also showcases the soft and genuine side of my heart. From smiling and persevering to naturally shedding tears, the audience may see helplessness, but perhaps persistence, and project this image onto themselves, feeling each person's unique self.
