Final Exhibition of Song Dong's Workshop
"The way of chopsticks"
Starting in 2001, Song and Yin began their ongoing project titled “The Way of the Chopsticks”. They decided on the central motif of chopsticks because of their symbolism—as discrete objects coming together to function as a pair. In this workshop organized by Global Art Joint Program of Tokyo University of the Arts, participating students worked in pairs, they decide theme together, produce works in isolation, never seeing the other’s works until they install in the exhibition space.

As said by Chinese Philosopher Laozi "one turns into two, two turns into three, and three can become everything". Three is recognized as a number of infinity. Three-minute conversation in Japanese from 2 ipads, questioning by the woman and answering by the man ( "Japanese Average Face" download from Google) while the two perfermancers getting far until the strip almost stopped their breath. By shared or private memories of daily life, the work recalls the mysteries and meaning of death and forgetness.
