愛與痛  中國現場藝術 

 
針對命名「愛與痛」的活動而做的行為。在活動進行當中﹐我悄然躺在觀眾腳下﹐用雙手圈住他/她的腳﹐兩人就這麼共處一段時間﹐直到觀眾抽離雙腳離開我的懷抱為 止。當被圈住的對象/觀眾離去後﹐我便啟身恢復站姿﹐並繼續尋找下一位意欲圈住的對象。

 It’s a performance done in an event entitled as Love & Pain.  During the event, I walked among the audience and quietly lied down to hold the feet of an audience with my arms.  We stayed together in this position for a certain period of time.  It ended up when the audience walked away from my “hugs,” and left my surrounding arms empty.  Then I stood up again and looked for next audience to hold.
