最近，Pejac选择在苏格兰阿伯丁市中心的一栋大楼入口处进行艺术干预，之所以选择这里，是因为该楼设有许多慈善机构，并且为面临社会排斥的弱势群体提供住所。入口门垫由大批小人构成，它们汇聚在一起，代表了“欢迎WELCOME”的方方面面，而其含义如今越来越不被重视。

For his latest intervention, Pejac chose the entrance of a building in the very centre of the city of Aberdeen (Scotland). This property was specifically chosen because it hosts many charities as well as homes for vulnerable residents facing social exclusion. The multitude of tiny figures that make up this doormat come together to stand for every aspect of the WELCOME concept, the meaning of which has been increasingly hard to find recently.

该作品传递了关于尊严的信息，使人们意识到那些社会边缘人比任何人都更能明白开放和由衷欢迎的重要性。它重塑了那些受到歧视并在某种意义上被社会抛弃的人的潜力，并把他们描绘成团结、有尊严的人。

The message is one of dignity, understanding that those who have been pushed to the margins of society can recognise the importance of an open and heartfelt welcome more than anyone. It reframes the potential of those who have been discriminated against and in some sense stepped over by society, and presents them as united and proud.

“Tired of being stepped over”

该艺术干预属于2022年Nuart艺术节，该艺术节于6月9日至12日举办。这是Pejac第二次参加该艺术节，其主题是重新连接城市和人民。

The occasion for this artistic intervention was the Nuart Festival 2022 which took place between the 9th and the 12th of June. The theme for this edition, the second in which Pejac has participated, was to reconnect the city and its people.
