这不是一个集团
This is not a Group

这组作品是一组八国集团（Group of 8）领导人的抽象摄影肖像，设计师将谷歌图像搜索得到的信息作为材料，经过组合混合形成了这套作品。通过自定义的软件，设计师将每次Google搜索得到的图像都叠加在一起，这样将查询结果的集合浓缩为一个单一的情感感知。每个像素都捕获了原始图像的光和颜色的细节，并通过大数据的细节算法将生理感知与数字相融合，从而展现给观看者。

Abstract photographic portraits of the G8 world leaders composed using the multitude of images returned by Google image searches blended into one single picture. Using custom made software, each image returned by Google is stacked on top of each other, and the total set of the query results is condensed into a single emotional impression. Each pixel captures the light and color details of numerous original images, and the huge algorithmic details displayed in large dimensions challenge the viewer to fuse his physiological perceptions with their digital representations in a world of big data.

数字肖像属于大型装置的一部分，它借鉴了现代主义风景画的演变：从点彩画派——通过运用类似印刷过程中的四色CMYK，进行新印象派创立的绘画方式，到抽象表现主义。这些历史演变都突显了人类对于模拟和数字感知的相容性，点彩画派里不同的点彩色捕获多个光源，然后通过相同浓缩效果的方式生成像素。同样的，大尺寸印刷品通常用不同的图像集合表现相同的查询项，这个方式也是借鉴克劳德莫奈印象派的绘画方法，该方法是通过多次绘制同一场景来表现季节的本质，也让观众们更容易沉浸于这些大规模景观画中。从远处看该组作品，观赏者也如同欣赏由Mark Rothko或Barnett Newman等抽象主义大师的大型油画作品。

The digital portraits are part of a large scale installation which makes a historic reference to the evolution of Modernist landscape painting, from Pointillism -a painting method developed by neo-impressionists analogous to the four-color CMYK printing process- to Abstract Expressionism. Those references highlight the consistency of human perception in the analog and digital domains, where the Pointillist distinct dots of color capturing multiple lights and colors have now become pixels generated in a way that creates the same condensed effect. The clustering of many different images portraying the same query term on a large size print is also a reference to Claude Monet’s impressionist method of painting the same scene many times to capture the essence of passing seasons, trying also to immerse the viewer into grand scale landscape paintings. And from a distance, the effect is also similar to experiencing large-scale canvases by Color Field abstractionists like Mark Rothko or Barnett Newman.

当一个国家只留下阴影
When a nation casts only Google shadows

当一个国家处于不稳定状态时，用谷歌图像搜索它时，搜索者会得到没有地图，没有旗帜，也没有旅游景点的结果。设计师采用浓缩像素的方式将谷歌搜索输出的信息与感情信息交织形成色域，从而提取到查询结果的抽象本质。 叙利亚的查询信息所投射的是一个阴暗的灰色的充满战争信息的场景：儿童在尘土飞扬的混凝土碎片上哭泣，尸体悬挂在几乎倒塌的建筑物上，叙利亚所展现的颜色是痛苦的灰色阴影。

When a nation is in an state of instability and you run an image google search about it, you’ll get no maps, no flags, nor tourist attraction places. The abstract essence of the query results can easily be distilled by massively processing a google search output to color fields of information interwoven with filaments of feelings created by condensed pixels. And Syria queries cast only a shadowy gray field of condensed war matter: children crying in front of dusty concrete pieces, hanging in almost collapsed building carcasses. The color of Syria is the gray shadow of pain.
