When you're gone 2015

by Eddie Choo Wen Yi

​

My field of interest are the traces we leave on everyday objects. I assume that every object has a memory and use this to show the significance of our daily routine. In this series entitled “When you’re gone” I employ the gesture of holding something in my hand to represent the relationship between myself and the things surrounding me. Material subtraction (carving) is used to produce the negative space of a touch that is no longer there. I vacuum pack the finished pieces to the enhance the image of the impression made on them.

​

我關注的是日常與物體之間的關係，並試圖將一個日常慣用手勢與物件的關係呈現出來。透過減除材料(雕刻)製作出手握式在物件的負空間形象，真空包裝加以顯現出物件被手勢負空間化的造型。作品系列主題為《你離開以後》，假設每件物體都有記憶，使用過的痕跡是否足以說明每日行程。
