This is Shi Yong's work in '38 Solo Exhibitions'. A phosphorescent text (which look as white as a wall under a ray of light, and as blue as the sky in the dark) extracted text from internet is applied in perspective and with density on the walls. As the public enters in the dark space, walls show some luminous words, accompanied with sounds, playing non-stop. As soon as spectators' feet hit pets' dish plates displayed on the floor, lights are turned on, glowing words and sounds vanish automatically, leaving a white space with pet dishes on the floor.After 5-10 seconds, lights are turned off, words and sound reappear.
這是施勇于《38個個展》展出的作品。 采用自發光水性顏料（在光線下呈白色,與牆體色一致，在暗處則呈現天藍色），將網上截取的文字，以透視編排方式密集地塗寫在空間內的四周牆體上。當觀眾進入無照明的空間時，空間四周牆上呈現著密集的發著光亮的文字，並不斷傳出與此相關的越來越密集的聲音。在此過程中，一旦觀眾的腳碰及地上的寵物食盆，空間內的照明即刻開啟，發光的文字及聲音則突然消失。除了白色空洞的空間及留在地上的幾個寵物食盆外，什麼也沒有。5秒-10秒後，照明自動關閉，空間內又重新呈現出密集的文字與聲音，依次循環。
