十七年的重量
The Weight of 17 Years
1 Brass Balance Scale, 11 Brass Scale Weights and Copper panel
49 x 36 x 17 cm
2015 


///



《十七年的重量》是《無中生有的那個有》的延伸。我把我用左右手分別抄寫的書信,拿到佛蒙特的郵局稱重量。
郵局的職員替我記下每一封信的重量。然後我把那重量制表、具體化,放在天秤上。

This work is the extension of "That Something Out of Something Out of Nothing". 
I brought the letters I transcripted, with my left hand and right hand, to the post office in Johnson, Vermont.
The officer weighted each letter for me. Thus I know the weight of 17 years.
I made the weight physical and put them on scale.
