MCA visiting*

Yesterday, Jin and I went to visit the MCA, Museum of Contemporary Art.
In between all art works, there were two works that touched my heart.
One of them is a short video of sea.
In that video, a girl is struggling in the angry sea for around five minutes.
Why did I say it gave me a strong feeling?
It is because when you look at the screen, you will feel like struggling together with the girl.
I think it's a kind of success that the art work can give the audience a feeling.
And the other art work is a dark area decorated by knives on the ceiling and nails on the floor.
It is made by an artist who have been living under the pressure of unstable society.
When you look at his art work, you can feel the fear that he felt.
It really made Jin and I felt scared and that's the art work I remembered the most.

Actually, one more reason for why I like the sea video is that I love sea so much.
This is a photo of peaceful sea I took in Hong Kong before.

finish reading this post,i feel a lit bit regret for not being there to see the work with u guys, hehe...really...
and i love sea as well...
one of the reasons is i'm unable to see it in my hometown...inner land..sigh...
and the major reason i love sea is because the sea gives me the chance to throw all troubles away and enjoy the total release from pressure...how abt u?

To winnie,
oh yes!
it's really a good exhibition.
you gotta have a visit there, no matter what time.
you will gain a lot!

msaryaya said...

To shushu,
yeah!
i highly recommend you guys to visit that museum.
it's really worth going!
exactly, that is also why i love sea so much!
when i look at the sea, i feel that i am such a small part in the world, any trouble i met is just as small as an ant on the ground.
and so the sea always comfort me when i feel upset too.
by the way, after this visit, i felt like other than looking at the big sea, visiting museum is also a good way to relax oneself, because some art works can make you feel happy!

To stephanie,
do i look like a professional artist by saying that comment?
HAHA*
my worries about accomodation have disappeared since my friends and i went out this weekends.
it is because i can feel that they're so active in house hunting, though we were late on the saturday's inspection!
HAHA*
