Invisible Box
September, 2020
Invisible Box is an installation experiment, trying to question how it feel when we were inside the elevator.
People have to take the elevator sometimes.
How do they feel?
Embarrassed to greet others?
Nervous when someone stares at them?
Pretending to look at phones but actually using their gaze to see others?
The smelly man looks at the well-dressed woman.
Red dress
high-heel
women
she is beautiful
But...
Why am I looking so terrible?
Am I?
NO！！
Never say that to me.
I am alone in this elevator now.
Finally.
Those children finally left.
This is my space now.
...
But,
Why silence around me?
When will the door open?
What happened to this alone?
So many of them,
Why they are looking at me?
No, they are not...
Maybe just my wild feeling...
I am sure,
He is gazing at me.
Pretty sure.
I have to keep my breath.
Too many people entered...
Why so many of them?
I could not breathe anymore.
Hurry, elevator, hurry...
Why is my office on the top floor of this building?
I have to wait for everyone to get off the elevator
Finally
My term...
502 glue is sticky, it remains a strong texture on the plastic box. I didn't intend to make those marks as the initial idea was to keep this box kind of 'invisible'.
However, ironically, after I finished them I found both my fingerprints and the glue remained on the surface, which kind of visualized how I actually make value of those moments.
