Today I went to Tate Modern to watch some exhibitons. There are some new exhibitons, which I feel happy. After these exhibitons, I had deep impression on several works. I spent much time in watching Taryn Simon's A Living Man Declared Dead and Other Chapters. She used photos to express what was dead. 'Dead' here is not saying people die in a natural way. War leads more people die in some countries. Simon took photographs of people who had bloodlines with each other and arranged them in order. You can see there is descent traced through photos. However, who knows will they have next generation.
It seems that we have a peace world now, but not all of countries in the world are peace. There are strong countries and weak countries. They are not balance actually, so there are still wars in this world. This situation can not be changed by normal people, but we can present this to the world and let more people know this.
Besides, a Korean Artist called Do Ho Suh made a work to express 'space' is interesting. He said 'The space I am interested in is not only a physical one, but an intangible, metaphorical, and psychological one. For me, 'space' is that which encompasses everything.'
