Solidarity in Solitude (繫 · 獨 / 獨 · 繫)

Set of three 家:疏而不離,孤而不單?Under the same light, apart not afar.------疫情期間我們被迫呆在家中,家庭成員之間的關係尤其可見。儘管生活在同一個屋簷下,我們卻在各自的角落,打各自的仗。每張方形畫布都是一個房間;在各房間裏有一把代表一個家庭成員的椅子,被一堆盒子覆蓋。 在這些盒子裡,重擔、問題和追求佔據並撞擊著心靈,將我們彼此隔開,但偶爾有一絲光從縫隙中透出。沒完沒了的問題會蒙蔽我們的視線,讓我們感到孤獨和沮喪——但當我們抬頭看,家中總有光芒照耀! The interaction between family members is especially revealing as we are forced to stay home during the pandemic. Despite living under the same roof, we stay in our corners, fighting our battles. Each square canvas is a room; in each, a chair represents a family member and is covered by a pile of boxes. In these boxes, burdens, problems and pursuits occupy and crash hearts, separate us from each other, but occasionally a light shines through the gaps. Endless issues can blind our sights and lead us to feel all alone and down – yet a light always shines through the family if we look up!
