颠覆美学｜A SUBVERSIVE AESTHETIC

名为“Cones”的装置在国际艺术节展出，数百个交通锥缠绕在根特大学Aula Academica立面的柱子上，引人注目。

The intervention alters the building’s assumed solemnity through an unconventional and thornily subversive aesthetic re-envisioning of its front.

基于对日常城市元素的重塑，该作品颠覆了原有建筑，为观众创造了意外的，有侵略性的，而又有趣的邂逅。

Working from the appropriation of an everyday urban element, the piece takes over the building to create unexpected and intrusive, yet playful encounters for viewers.

激动人心的挑战｜AN EXICITING CHALLENGE

SpY依靠其艺术作品中对城市景观的个性化使用被人们熟知。在他手中，即使是我们每天都见的，具有方向与控制功能的物品也能被转化为形式的游戏，并蕴含不可预见的意义。

SpY is known for his personal use of elements of the urban landscape in his artistic projects. In his hands, objects that we see every day fulfilling functions of direction and control are transformed into tools for formal play, and a vehicle for unforeseen meanings.

在“Cones”中，他秉持着对于新纪念性元素的探索精神，引入新的概念，对话，手法与工具，还有新的方式，设计一系列艺术策略引发出灵感火花。

In “Cones”, he continue exploring new monumental formats that involve new concepts, dialogues, processes and tools, as well as new ways to spark reflections through a variety of artistic strategies.

“SpY”经常用日常的物品进行新的创作。他从日常生活或意向中提取灵感，这些元素是每个人都见过的、熟悉的、并不意外的，然后将其多层次地排列成一种前所未有的模式。为观众带来全新的观感，给人留下耐人寻味的印象。

“SpY” often works in the creation of new forms using ordinary objects. He takes an element from daily life or from today’s imagery, something everybody has seen, knows and takes for granted, then it multiplies and arranges it in an unprecedented pattern. Creating a novel situation for the viewer and sparks an intriguing first impression.
