……就其本意而言,基本上可以说是现实的一种折射,即让现实在歪歪斜斜和热烘烘的气氛中,折射在随意起伏不定的某一层面上,显现出一种被扭曲了的投影。——《岁月的泡沫》(Boris Vian)




sh Contemporary 07 (1) Harsha's Nation 哈夏的国度


Presently, Harsha looks at the broader context of "Nations" whose seperate identity is defined by governmental agencies to be absorbed and yet simultaneously undermined by the chaotic tanglement of living. Here he juxtaposes as well as links the objects and concept of the national flag with human effort understood through the metaphor of labour. The process of official image-construction becomes examined by interpretative portraying of it and by confronting it with its grass-roots reality.

——Marta Jakimowitz

Harsha's Nation  by N.S. Harsha (Sakshi Gallery) 哈夏的国度是07上海国际当代艺术展里最大的室内装置作品。艺评人Marta称之为“一块浩大的画布”——192个联合国会员国国旗前,是192台真实的缝纫机,它们彼此相连,排列整齐,但垂坠的方式又略有不同。

難道靈感來自于東莞制衣厰女工縫紉車間?

哈哈,那个艺术家是个印度人……估计在印度这样的作坊也不少吧,就那么被inspire了大概。
