Rendering of Absence by Absent Gallery
「草船借箭」艺术家借用诸葛亮的典故，用一艘木船来收集人们对社会的各种质疑。
作品提供了一个空间，人们可以写下任何想说的问题，这些问题由观众印到箭支上，然后观众将箭支射到悬挂在墙上的木船上。最后，这些箭簇撑起了这条插满信息的船只。
The artist borrows the allusion to Zhu Geliang and uses a wooden boat to collect people's various doubts about society.
The work provides a space where people can write down any questions they want to raise, and these questions are printed onto arrows by the audience, who then shoot the arrows onto the wooden boat hanging on the wall. In the end, these arrow clusters hold up the boat, which is plugged with messages.
