Speaking Wall. Now & Text. Asia Contemporary Art, Guangju National Museum, 2010 |
|
Speaking Wall is a maquette sculpture for a larger proposed installation for a site specific installation to be approximately 12 feet tall by 3 feet wide. The tongues are made of ceramic, and are embedded but protruding from a mound of sand and cement.
I am conscious of a timeline in human experience, of the words being spoken and built consciously and subconsciously upon words that were spoken in the past. This work raises a question about the exchanges between our individual voice and those of our collective voices, as they play out time and again throughout the changing events of history.
The words we speak can inspire, save, support or even hurt a person. I am trying to explore a social aspect of different people and languages and races as well as their cultures, religions, and political stance.
