Ten Tang Poems , 2000-2001
In this work, Ten Tang Poems, calligraphy of ten poems from the Tang Dynasty have been written inversely, left to right and bottom to top. Every stroke order was also written inversely. Playing this video backward, the poems are erased as they are written, turning calligraphy into anti-calligraphy. The calligraphy on paper is installed on the wall, which creates a paradoxical relationship with the video. |
