In the forest near my location, I apply natural rubber liquid to the surface of the trees, let it dry, take it off, and recreate it as a "rubber tree," creating the illusion of a transplanted and covered-over forest. The natural plant fragments and the rubber interweave and resist each other to produce a new "forest."

A mound of earth at the bottom of the installation forks in all directions, like tree roots extending outwards. Each fork is tapped to play field recordings of the forest, explosions, house demolitions, numbers, warnings, and so on to bring people's attention to the diversity that is progressively being lost, the invisible trauma, and the vitality.




在我驻地附近的森林中,我将天然橡胶液体涂抹在树木表面,晾干后撕扯下来,复制成一颗颗“橡胶树木”,制造一片森林被迫移植和覆盖的幻象。原始植物的遗留碎片与橡胶相互缠绕和抗衡,形成新的“森林”。

装置底部是一个土堆,土犹如树根一般四处分叉,向外部蔓延。每一个分叉随着触碰播放森林的田野录音,爆炸,房屋拆迁,数字,警告声等,试图去引起人们反思其中逐渐失去的多样性,看不见的创伤与其处境紧密连接的生命力。

This property has been left in its natural state for geographical reasons and cannot serve as a suitable setting for introducing rubber trees, which must flourish in subtropical rainforests. However, the massive demand for rubber, industrial production, and profit maximization from plantation development continues in other locations and circulates among themselves due to globalization. The Anthropocene's behavior has warped and contradicted the link between plants and plants. The context of post-colonial, gentrification, and forced migration extends from humans to nature.



因为地域原因,这片土地保留其原始状态,不能作为适合的环境引入必须生长于亚热带雨林的橡胶树。但庞大的橡胶需求量,工业生产以及人们对于种植扩张的利益最大化仍在其他地区持续下去并在全球化的影响下相互流通。植物与植物的关系在人类世的行为中变的扭曲和矛盾。后殖民,绅士化与被迫迁移的语境从人类延伸至自然。
