Not For Sale
當惡要降臨這個城市⋯⋯ 這是一個啫喱世界，本來空無一物，後來人們建立、佔據、蹂躪和粉飾它，賦予它各種意義和價值。現在看來，它是如此閃亮，卻又殘缺不堪。縱然破碎，它亦不至於馬上瓦解；直到蠟燭的火光降臨，它才被完全毀滅。啫喱融化是泯滅的定局，還是重生的前奏？ 陳卓甄以錄像記錄啫喱世界的變化，以樹膠染印疊染啫喱的肖像。對她來說，啫喱世界是不息之地，我城亦是。 When evil befalls this city… This is a jelly world. There was nothing here originally, but later people built, occupied, ravaged, and decorated it, giving it various meanings and values. It looks perfect from afar, and is yet far from perfect. Even if it is broken, it will not disintegrate immediately; only when candle flames come close will the jelly be destroyed. Is melting the jelly’s inescapable fate of obliteration—or is it the prelude to rebirth? Glo Chan Cheuk-yan documents changes in the jelly world with moving images, and reproduces images of the jelly layer by layer with gum bichromate printing. For Chan, the jelly world is an everlasting place—and so is our city.
