Vacuum

It is an ongoing cooperative project "Vacuum", collaborates with artist Peiran Wang.

We take the fractured experience of women's lives and look at the fairy tale The Little Mermaid as a prototype for this experience, developing a range of creations such as performances, photographs, poems, artists' books and more.

It explores the question of identity between non-human creatures and queer feminism and aims to build narrative rights and identity subjectivity for women through collective research and co-creation.












STONE

Find a stone that is your size or weight.

Crack it until it becomes fine powder.

Dispose of it in the river. (a)

Send small amounts to your friends. (b)

Do not tell anybody what you did.

Do not explain about the powder to the

Friends to whom you send. ”(Ono, 1995)



Maybe I am already a stone,

an immutable stone,

a light grey, rough, angular stone.



Stream flows through me;

Wind blows through me;

Sun glows through me.



I am eroded by the stream and meet other stones;

I am whirled by the wind and fall heavily off the cliff;

I am burned by the light and deformed the air.



Rain drops, thunder roars, torrential rains continue.

Water hits violently,

Take me away until the rain stops suddenly.

Water and I,

Hit everything hard together.



Wind rages, flecks shine, forest fires burn.

Fire attacks maniacally,

Heat me until I explode.

Fire and I,

Burn everything together.



I can be everything,

But I can’t do anything.



Just be a stone,

Be omnipotent,

Be everywhere.





Ono, Y., 1995. Grapefruit. New York: St. Martin's Press, p.52.
