給蘇姍
Buat Suance (Dear Susan)

July 2018

Mixed Media Installation

家中有很多用異國文字寫成的信,藝術家試著用一本印尼文英語字典把它們翻譯過來。在還沒有google translate而電子辭典仍很昂貴的年代,這本字典是蘇姍僅餘可以協助孩子學習的工具;現在藝術家希望透過這翻頁過程,去重新理解蘇姍。

There are so many letters written by a foreign language in Susan’s home. The artist tried to translate them with an Indonesian-English dictionary. Before google translate is invented and electronic dictionary was still expensive, this dictionary was the only tool that Susan could help the kids to learn. The artist wanted to understand Susan once again from the process of flipping the dictionary.
