Zine about the intimacy between myself and Rotterdam city
INTIMACITY is an installation art piece that explores the relationship between people and the intimacy of the city. It blurs the boundaries and distinction of public and private spaces.
The installation is composed of a semi-transparent mesh mosquito net, stitched together with various materials and fabrics. One section of the net has a hollow opening designed for people to experience observing in a city/public area while maintaining a hint of privacy/intimacy. This setup might provide new perspectives or sources of inspiration and encourage contemplation on the importance of art in everyday life.
Lauren Berlant once wrote, “Rethink intimacy is to appraise how we have been and how we live and how we might imagine lives that make more sense than the ones so many are living." Here, I want to invite you to explore the possibilities of intimacy within this city with me.

INTIMACITY 是一個探討人與城市親密感之間的關聯的裝置藝術。它模糊了公共空間與私密空間的邊界與定義。 這是由一個半透明網狀的蚊帳組成並拼接不同的材質與布料。蚊帳的某一處有一個空心的洞是為了讓人們體驗在城市/公共區域中觀察並保有一絲絲的隱密/親密性，或許能獲得新的觀點或靈感來源並思考日常生活藝術的重要性。
勞倫·貝蘭特寫過一句話，“重新思考親密性就是評估我們如何生活以及如何想像比許多人當前生活更合理的生活。” 在此我想要邀請你們與我一起在這座城市裡探索關於親密性的可能性。
