Transcript


Large Vase of Flowers, 1991. The Made in Heaven series is similar to the Banality series in that it’s dealing with acceptance and the removal of judgment, but it’s targeting the beginning of this dislocation—not happening culturally, but happening within the relationship that we have with our own bodies, with our own sexuality, even with the just the concept of procreation. And the whole body of work is opening itself up to the beauty of procreation. The beauty of sexuality and its being. So if you look at the Large Vase of Flowers, it’s like looking at, you know, fifty sexual organs, all there just to procreate, or to be able to have pollination take place, and to participate in the leapfrogging of life’s energy.

語音謄本翻譯


《大瓶花》,1991年。《天堂製造》系列與《平凡》系列有相似之處,它們都涉及接納和去除評判的精神,但《天堂製造》聚焦這種脫節的開端,這不是文化上的脫節,而是我們與自己肉體的關係、與性的關係,甚至是與生育概念的關係的脫節。整個系列的作品都在表達生育之美,體現性以及性的美。所以如果你看《大瓶花》這個作品,你就正在觀賞五十個生殖器官,它們的存在就是為了生育,或是為了進行授粉,參與生命能量的互相交替。
