Visitors thoughts:
— They really mustn’t have the concept of frat parties in Asia.
Who forgot to clean up the opening party?
— Hum. This looks like the Principals front lawn on homecoming night.
There is just an awful lot going on here. Rods, ground mats, nets, balloons, white, black vertical lines, curved lines… Nothing cohesive. Nothing Crafted. Nothing… Relatable. Everything. Confusing. very very confusing. And I think that it’s sad when proposals like this make a bad impression on people who… don’t quite understand our work in the first place.
I don’t like this at all. The installation does nothing to compliment the space and frankly, looks like the place was teepeed. It’s a shame that some might call this art.
