Concept:
This is an instruction painting. I dropped a poetry book(randomly picked from my bookshelf), and I there was a page faced down to the floor. I read that page, it was about mass movement, how mass movement works and poet’s feeling about mass movement. Then I kept thinking about the theme ‘mass movement’ in three following days, synethsis and analysis all my thoughts and feelings and emotions about ‘mass movement’ and plan to paint all those feeings, thoughts and emotions out. Because I’m living in New York City, manhattan, there were a lot of mass movement. I stared them for a while, suddenly I feel that people are just people, buildings are just buildings, cars are just cars, which I mean, I felt that everything in our world are all same, we are as same as buildings, cars, trees and other things. The minimum elements that made of us must be same, we are all etheric matter. Then I wanted to put ‘EVERYTHING’ in the world in it. Because I believed, everything is one thing.
第一步:设定一个指令
选一本诗集,(任何您喜欢的诗集)
以您喜欢的方式扔它。
朝任何方向扔这本诗集,
扔过头顶或让它撞击地面,
直到它掉落在地上,
贴着地面的那一页将与您匹配。
捡起来,把它翻过来。
阅读完此页后闭上眼睛。
脑海中第一个出现的是什么图像?
快抓住它!在您想象的内在空间中凝视它!
好吧!快记录下来!
然后再次回到您的脑海中去,去挖掘出更多细节,但一定要记录下来。
最后,在已经刷了三层底料的画布上详细展开这些记录下来的内容。
第二步:执行这个指令
第三步:获得内容

第三章 试着从熬头方面给“人群 ”下定义
人群”是一个幻觉吗?“人群”不是你和我。“人群”也不是“人”,
也不是“人民”。
人群就是人群:人贴人、人靠人、人挤人、人推人:
眼睛、鼻子、嘴巴、耳朵。重复一遍:眼睛、鼻子、嘴巴、耳朵。
薄荷的香气,熏死酒气冲天的人,扛不住口臭、汗臭、脚丫子味
儿······
对于口臭、汗臭、脚丫子味儿,人群可以异口同声地否认。
在人群中,走快点——不可能,倒下去——不可能,
除非你走在人群之前,或落在人群之后。
