Artwork description:

Replacing new phones and luxury spending seem to become a trend, causing more waste of electronics. Once, a blockage after going to the toilet at home is a result of some e-waste. This incident made me stimulate my inspiration, and it seemed that advanced development would inconvenience people, or even block people's minds.

I used some little things in the work, humorous to assemble them, but also satirical some people and things in the society. The plumbing is a great example for me, and it stands out. I tied many of the mobile phone charging cables to each other and placed them in the water hose, causing a blockage. I added to the tail end with hot glue.

The hot glue seems to be dirt and garbage, but the whole device means people are trapped by companies and eventually crushed into unattended garbage or debris. These residues finally also kept sending out distress messages to the outside world-through the channel.


作品描述:

更换手机和奢侈消费似乎变成一种潮流,造成电子的浪费也更严重。一次在家里如厕后发生堵塞,结果是一些电子垃圾导致的。这件事让我刺激了我的灵感,似乎先进的发展会给人们带了不便,甚至是堵塞了人们的思想。

我在作品中使用了一些日常的东西,幽默的将他们组装起来,同时也讽刺着社会中的一些人和事。水管对我来说是很好的例子,它很醒目。我将许多的手机充电线互相捆绑并安置在水管里面,造成堵塞。我并用热熔胶加入在水管的尾端。这些热熔胶看似是污垢和垃圾,但从整个装置来了解,是人们被企业困住,最后都被压榨成无人理会的垃圾或者残渣。这些残渣最后也不停的给外界发出信息-通渠。
