這件作品是2023年一場刺青比賽的獎盃。它使用軟膠材質製成,並具有球型可動式關節。這件作品的主題是「悄悄話」,其設計意圖是要表達現代人類更多地依賴聽覺而非視覺來理解世界,好像已經失去了用眼睛去察看真相的能力,給人一種被蒙蔽了眼睛的感覺。
在這件藝術作品中,一個骷髏頭的手正遮住一位皇后的眼睛,象徵著她已經無法看見真實。這個動作暗示著骷髏(可能象徵死亡或其他負面力量)正在操縱這位女王去做壞事,同時也反映了當代社會中權力的象徵和濫用。整體而言,這件作品深刻地描繪了現代社會中視覺與聽覺的角色,以及權力如何在不被察覺的情況下操縱人們。
This piece served as a trophy for a tattoo competition in 2023. Crafted from soft vinyl and featuring ball-type articulated joints, its theme, "Whispers," aims to convey how modern humans increasingly rely on hearing over sight to comprehend the world, as if they've lost the ability to discern truth with their eyes, creating a sense of being blinded.
In this artwork, a skeletal hand covers the eyes of a queen, symbolizing her inability to see the truth. This gesture suggests that the skeleton (possibly symbolizing death or other negative forces) is manipulating the queen into malevolence, reflecting on the symbolism and misuse of power in contemporary society. Overall, this work poignantly portrays the roles of sight and hearing in modern society and how power can manipulate individuals unnoticed.
