2020

作品将分为三幕
A work of three acts:

I 仪式 ‘The Ritual’
II 毁灭 ‘The Liberation’
III 救赎 ‘The Monument’

仪式

我每天都以數據的形式記錄每一餐
這個行為很快成為 一种令人上癮的習慣
繁瑣的动作
毫無意義的儀式
每月
每週
日天
或每當我吞进 一口食物
就算我忘记了日子
也永遠无法忘記
加法
乘法
数字
无法自拔 。

‘The Ritual’

‘Day by day,
I have been recording all my meals in the form of numerical data.
This act soon became an addictive habit,
a tedious chore,
a meaningless ritual that must be performed
monthly,
weekly,
daily,
Or whenever I take A bite of something.
A sip of something.
I have lost count of the days,
yet could never forget the calculations,
the additions,
multiplications,
the numbers.

毁灭

已经忘记我是怎麼開始的
害怕自己将永遠停不下來。
或許
突然
有一天
我会停止一切。

*此表演是出所有數字信息的完全毁灭

‘The Liberation’

‘Never knowing how I began,
and if I would ever stop.
Perhaps
one day.
I will.’

*This act signifies a complete destruction of all numerical information that I have kept over this period of time.

救赎

拼不回去的碎片
将会是永远的
一道伤；
但这不是故事的結尾
而是一场序幕。

‘The Monument’

‘Collecting all the broken pieces,
and putting them back on the dining table
for one last time.
This act is an epilogue to this story.
A prologue
for the next.’
