行为装置和艺术家路易吉·科波拉的合作

“Breathe in Breathe out” is the third collaborative performance project between Luigi Coppola and Yingmei Duan.

The stage is installed with a large pulley system of ropes. The ropes connect the audience to different objects: a microphone, a book of the law, a bucket of water, a chair, a table, a knife, and some rubbish bags. These ropes also hold the artists, and the audience can interact with these ropes and pull the performers and the objects as they wish. It is almost as if they have a remote control to command the performance.

One cage with a living white rabbit is free among the other tied objects. There is also a stopwatch on stage timing the performance.

Within the pulley system/spider web the artists represent symbols of moral, social, religious constriction and denial of freedom, in which the audience has an active role and a possibility to move and transform the performance.

《呼与吸》是段英梅与意大利艺术家路易吉·科波拉的第三次合作。表演中,舞台上安装着一套 滑轮和绳索,绳索一端连接着艺术家和各种静物,比如一部手机、一本法律书、一桶水、一把椅 子、一张桌子、一把刀和一些垃圾袋。绳索的另一端在观众的手中,他们可以按照自己的想法用 绳索拉动艺术家或者拽动各个静物,就好像他们手里有可以操控行为表演的遥控器一样。现场有 一个装着小兔子的笼子没有系到绳子上,台上还有一个计时器来为整场行为表演计时。
