Ten Poems by Su Shi explores the dialectics of appearance and disappearance. The work consists of calligraphy and its video documentation: the artist has written the text in backward stroke order and reverse spatial order. The video is however played in reverse order so that the characters seem to be disappearing stroke by stroke. Qiu Zhijie once commented that ‘this is the changing nature of things: sometimes they appear in front of your eyes, sometimes they hide within a state of possibility. This possibility runs through the veins of my work.’
