Chan Suk On is wearing a surgical face mask every day. In Hong Kong, about 99% of people are wearing masks. She uses the packages and boxes of surgical face masks which come from the United States, Japan, Korea, United Kingdom. She does not know the Japanese and Korean languages. So, she uses translator apps to understand what they say. In Hong Kong, she can buy some alcohol swabs which come from Indonesia. 75% alcohol swabs are essential to her life to kill the virus. These are her experiences in these strange times. In the global world, surgical face masks are out of stock. Many people worry all the time. The supply and demand are unbalanced. So, she tries to develop the sculpture which is mixed with the packages to give her peace of mind.
每天我都戴口罩。我保留了口罩和酒精濕紙巾的包裝,來自美國、日本、韓國、英國。當我不懂日文和韓文的時候,我經常用翻譯apps 來了解產品的用途和成份。在香港能買到來自印尼的含75%消毒濕紙巾來殺滅病毒。這是我在這個時期所遇到的經歷。在這個世界裏,醫療口罩曾經一度缺貨,令人心煌煌。供不應求,我嘗試採用了抗疫物資做成了一件雕塑,給我安心的感覺。
