Hu Weiyi

FIELD MEETING | Take 5

October 14, 2017 | Hosted at Asia Society Museum, New York City

A Speechless Speech

In his stunning performance for FIELD MEETING, Hu Weiyi introduced “on-site sentence construction”, a tactic he has interpreted in his past art projects with an array of digital projections and mathematical algorithms to automatically formulate sentences. However catering exclusively to FIELD MEETING’s auditorium setting, Weiyi used a human body, restricted from freedom and speech, as a canvas for projection, yielding the chaotic narratives made by technological devices. The performance was a poignant conversation about the dilemma of facing a world on a daily basis that demands constant delivery and processing of information against our will.
