UED:“后昆虫时代”这个主题的构思来源于哪?对于材料的选用是怎么考虑的?冯澍:我是80后,出生在北京,所以小的时候经常玩昆虫。这也是我创作这组装置的原因。它们是用陶瓷和不锈钢制成的,在材料上有一个对比。陶瓷是非常中国化的材料,不锈钢代表着西方工业文明。这种对比我认为很有趣。UED:而且在体积上也是一个对比。在看简介的时候,背景是白底的,我们以为是小摆件。看到实物的时候吃了一惊——这么大!就像好莱坞的灾难片中把昆虫放大,就变成了怪兽。 UED: Where did the post-insect era idea originate? How do I think about material selection? Feng Shu: I was 80 and I was born in Beijing so I often play insects when I was a kid. This is why I created this set of devices. They are made of ceramic and stainless steel with a contrast on the material. Ceramic is a very Chinese material, stainless steel represents the western industrial civilization. I think this comparison is very interesting. UED: And in volume is also a contrast. When looking at the introduction, the background is white, we think it is a small ornament. When you look at the real thing, you’re taken aback - so big! It’s like a Hollywood disaster that amplifies an insect and becomes a monster.
