Description
In this installation, bricks are arrayed in different forms: some are stacked into a cubic structure, some are spreading onto the floor, and some are placed onto the metal webs. Installed in the room also is the metal webs; like the bricks, the webs are also arranged in various forms: some are attached to the ground, some erect as a "chimney" like structure, and some serve as the "fences" or the "barriers". The third object constitutes this work is axes. They are also placed in the space contingently -- some are on the metal web structure, one is on the ground (on the web as well), and a pile of them are enclosed in a metal-web cage. (Jerry Wu'23).00
