bubble project-guerilla tactics

2009-06-14T18:33:00.007+10:00

WHAT?

i want to draw parallels in our understanding of graffiti art in relationship between public art. and make street art more soften, warm and educate the public.

"image can be seen as text, text sometimes used as image"

HOW?

i will make a series of bubble, stiching words / quotes on felt.

i will tagging specific area, country & people.

i will respond to others graffiti artwork.

i will make an installation a series of photograph and bubble artworks.

WHY?

the relationship between art,public art,network and community.

to give a motivation, educate and the sense of humors behind the words.

Why Felt?

it's soft, approachable, meant to be touched and easily to remove.
the pieces will reassembled to become something else and somewhere else.

be nice

sweet dreams :)

2009-05-23T20:01:00.010+10:00

This is my final project for intersection, Arts week in Flemington Community Centre, 25 Alexander Rd. Debneys Park. We have 3 weeks started from 21 April till 11 May to finished the projects. I also design the invitation card with Ute.

The opening night was on Tuesday 12 May 4.30 pm.
My project are an installation of 100 origami wishes of crane birds in a tree. Location : BBQ area near Community Centre, Flemington. I through a lot of process before the installation day. Origami crane is a symbol of long life and happiness in Japan. According to Japanese legend, folding 1000 cranes will make your wish come true. Tradition of senbazuru (1000 paper cranes), if you make 1000 crane, you can make a wish. I made only 200 crane for 3 weeks with different sizes and colours. 100 wishes from different people, different handwriting and language. It was fun and good experience to me. My work titled 'sweet dreams' dedicated to all of people in this world and of course special to people who live in flemington flats. Most of them are refugee from Somali, Africa, Vietnam and China. I believed they have a dreams and wish. I hope all their dreams come true. :)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

the process (21 april - 11 april 2009)

I made 200 crane within 3 weeks. I love them. There are so lovely. I made them while I spend my day watching television, drink coffee, eat cookies and chatting with friends..hahha. It was fun.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

installation day (12 may 2009)

I wish on that day the weather is fine and hope everything fine. Yes! My crane birds float and flew nicely. They looked so gorgeous and colourful. ~success :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

the wishes

100 wishes with different writing, language and from different person. How i wish i can make 1000 crane birds. But its still worth it eventhough i just made 200 crane. I'm so happy when look at people with their smile while read the wishes. Great!

--------------------------------------

what left (15 & 17 may 2009)

This is few crane birds left after 5 days in the tree. I realised the community respond on this work. I really dont mind they kept them. Hope they will continue to make the crane or install in different space. Hope to see them in future. :D

make a wish...............................................................................................................................

Sadako and the thousand paper cranes, written by Eleanor Coerr, 1977. I found this book from wikipedia. This book based on true story of a girl name Sadako Sasaki, who lived in Hiroshima at the time of the atomic bombing. She survived the bombing only to die of radiation poisoning ten years later. She began folding paper cranes while spent her time in a medical ward. She hope of making a thousand cranes and to make one wish, which was to live. She managed to fold 644 cranes before she became to weak and died. Her bird cranes become a symbol of world peace. Located in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima, Sadako is immortalized at the top of the statue, The Children's Peace Monument is a monument for peace, where she holds a crane. It was design by artists Kazuo Kikuchi and Kiyoshi Ikebe. Her story was very famous and has been translated to many language and published in many places.

julie shiels' floor talk

2009-04-18T12:21:00.012+10:00

julie shiels : sleeper, MGA .

im so proud that i've been to julie's exhibition yesterday with maritha n rowena. yeayyyy.it was a great day! thanks to maritha because without her maybe i had no chance to go there. its sooooooooooooo far away from city. no idea where it is. 1 part of suburb in melbourne though. so i took a train from melbourne central to tooronga station. then maritha pick up us at the train station. the exhibition at Monash Gallery of Art, 860 Ferntree Gully Road, Wheelers Hill, vic.

Julie shiels collects the most repellent of hard rubbish detritus the discarded matress.

Salvaging these seemingly un-redeemable objects, Shiels' constructs sleuth-like narratives

from the knives, weapons and children's toys found stashed in their folds. Pyjamas are made from the matress

'skin', sanitised and cleaned, the garments are luxurious, opulent, delicate.
http://www.citytraces.julieshiels.com.au/

it was a great day n have a good conversations with maritha n rowena along the way to monash gallery. by the way,,i lost my met card on thursday.sob sobb.. so i bought new 1 yesterday, 2hour x 10, another $29.00 dollar.. but its allrite.its not my day today,maybe tomorrow. talk with rowena about that, she's so sweet.n we believe on 'what goes around comes around'. do a gud thing to other people n 1 day u'll get more.

so lessons of the day be good and always appreciate what u have around u. just wanna to share that for me, family and friends are so important in my life. everyone should appreciate it because we need each other in this world. i can't understand who really2 can't appreciate friendship. contact me only when need or ask for something.come when need something n just simply go or isolate her self. i waiting like an ages n no complain.pick up the fon eventho it was 3 am in the morning.1 evening she ignored me and i didn't get it why all of sudden its happen. asked her n said sorry if im do wrong,but she didnt replied.yeayyyhhh its tooooo dificult to her and take soooo long to reply my sms & call liked before.im get used of it. this is my learning process to understand this type of friend. furthemore we just know each other for a month. so maybe she just a person who pass by into my life.

quote of the day...

'i learned the real meaning of love.love is absolute loyalty.people fades, look fades, but loyalty never fades.'

just listen.

2009-04-08T22:39:00.007+10:00

what i hear?

what i feel?

can i touch it?

can i see u?

can i talk?

now i will do nothing but listen...
i hear all sounds running together, combined,
fused or following,
sounds of the city and sounds out of the city,
