Description:
This is an Intrude project which will be presented in public space.
Security issue has become the top priority on the agenda of every nation. Various terrorist attacks have urged Western countries to take the safety issue of public space more seriously than ever before. On the streets of the United States, police patrol cars are dramatically increased and the warning "IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING" can be spotted almost everywhere in public space.
The video work is shot under such tense and sensitive atmosphere. The video features an unattended suitcase left on the street. Under the overwhelming anti-terrorist atmosphere, such a suitcase seems extremely suspicious.
The message sent by the video is simple and clear: IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING. |
