The Bearable series
2007–2010
30 archival inkjet prints in Nielsen aluminum frames
I want to share this emptiness with you,
not to fill a silence with false notes or put tracks through the void.
I want to share this wilderness of failure.
The others have built you a highway - fast names in both directions.
I offer a journey without direction, certainty and sweet conclusion.
When the light faded, I went to search for myself.
There are many paths, and many destinations.
- Derek Jarman, Garden
The Bearable is a reflective documentation of the artist's dark, though occasionally euphoric, history of self-inflicted harm in four years.
可承受的 系列
2007–2010
30张收藏级喷墨照片,尼尔森铝合金框装裱
我要和你共同分享这一重空洞,
非以伪饰的话填满静默,非以虚无的途指路。
我要和你共同领受这一破败的荒野。
人们辅你以坦途,名字却飞快地奔往相反的方向。
我为你带来一段旅程:毫无方向,偶然丛生,充满不安与不甘。
当日光隐没,我出门寻找自己。
那里有很多条路,和很多个结局。
——德里克·贾曼《花园》
《可承受的》是一份关于艺术家个人自伤史的自白档案,记录了她在2007年至2010年间黑暗却又不乏狂喜的体验。
