No land to live
In the production process of this piece of work. I feel the transition of political atmosphere in Taiwan.
The atmosphere of distrust spread around the society.
In this work, all of these are just like after leaving an anxious scene.
Maybe a insurrection, a late night party, an end of a sex, or on the way return after a rebellion protest.
Don’t want to return, the so-called home, the place to live. No one will wait there, or it doesn’t matter anymore.
Thinking of where can self exist.
And the body rather stay at the interim middle, somewhere no where.
I shoot 56 street scene in midnight Taipei. Those bodies have no intent to return to the place they live.
Maybe they feel too strong about the place they just left, and the feeling can’t be soothed.
They need a place in the middle, just stay there, exist there.
Let self feel the existence of self.
To recover the senses of the body.
And this status becomes a kind of ceremony. The ceremony of trying to cover or stop what just happened.
The fluttering insects are the summon of ghost.
It’s a foretell of the past and those unhappened.
Entrenching the body, waiting for the evidence left, becoming the existence.
