The panoramic picture of the three watermelon installations, the watermelon seems to be about to be punctured, and the plant watermelon represents the vulnerable group, unable to speak, unable to clearly express their feelings, pain and suffering.
The juice of the watermelon is red, and if it is pierced, the red juice will be like bleeding from the human head.
The behavior of the woman in the video is a small worship in Taoism. This is the victim's fantasy, the fantasy that the other person will let them go, hoping that it is all fake, hoping that a miracle will happen. In addition, in psychology, when the victim is in great pain, he will separate a personality in his mind to see the injured himself, because the body can no longer bear the pain.
In the background of the video, the voices of two women talk about gossip, which leads to two stories, one is the news of a three-year-old child with a needle in his body, and the other is the movie of a wife killing her husband with a nail.
Ye Yao, an artist dedicated to capturing motion, installation and behaviour and expressing ideas through video.
My goal is to bring the audience closer to understanding the psychological and social implications behind the featured behaviour.
Her most recent works use watermelons instead of human organs to express feelings. It emphasizes the feelings of pain and injury. This reveals the diversity of human nature, as well as the physical behavioural states of abusers and victims, which should be valued.
My work revolves around themes of health, healing, physical and social contradictions, and aims to heal wounds and challenge traditional prejudices.
