This time, the hairy-legs creatures have arrived on the real Earth, opening their new stage in the unnoticed nooks and crannies, where no one pays any attention.
I create using Google Maps' street view mode, with the location selection being random – the Southern and Northern Hemispheres, cities, and countryside; I pick wherever the cursor lands. Of course, for composition's sake, I make some choices, and then I reinterpret based on the street views generated by the real images. These ordinary and commonplace scenes may never have my direct involvement, but they often make up the daily lives of other people. Through Google Maps car, we finally meet, transcending time and space. It seems as though nothing has happened, yet it feels like a unique adventure. But we all know that it's virtual, even if people can access the exact locations mentioned in the titles of the works (coordinates), they won't be able to see the same flower, car, or the surrounding environment.
这一次毛腿生物的舞台来到了真实地球,在谁都不在意的犄角旮旯里开启他们新的故事。
我利用谷歌地图的街景模式进行创作,位置的选择是随机的,南半球、北半球、城市、乡村,点到哪里就选哪里,当然为了构图我也会稍作选择,然后根据地图生成的街景重新创作。这些普通又平凡的场景或许永远都不会有我的参与,但它们往往又组成另一些人的日常生活。通过谷歌的采景车,我们得以跨越时空在虚拟的网络里相遇,似乎什么也没发生,又似乎经历一场特别的奇遇。即使人们可以访问作品标题中确切的位置,他们也无法看到同一朵花,汽车,或者周围的环境。
