<p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><em>Like Tears In The Rain</em><br />2023<br />Variable dimensions<br />Shredded banknotes (Euro)</span></p><div><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"></span></p><p>Carlos Aires is a multidisciplinary artist who focuses his artistic lens on the peripheries of contemporary culture and is recognized for his critical – or sometimes skeptical – view of society and his research into representations of power. For Encounters, he offers us a conceptual provocation with a new sculptural installation: an ambiguous topographical form composed of shredded decommissioned Euros. We are reminded of the Dada artists who worked with and subverted money within their practices. Here, the artist further relegates these banknotes to detritus, in a destructive yet regenerative act. He excavates the inequalities that exist within our economic systems and structures of power, as well as the inequitable distribution of wealth and access within our capitalist society. Through this radical transformation, the artist seems to centralize the problematic underpinnings of labor within the economic terrain. He asks us: ‘what does capital look like, what is it that we value, and how do we expend that value?’ </p><p>Carlos Aires is a multidisciplinary artist internationally recognized for his cynical vision of today's society and his research into the representations of power. He obtained a bachelor’s degree in fine arts at the University of Granada in Spain and completed his postgraduate studies at Fontys Academy (Tilburg), HISK (Antwerp) and Ohio State University (Columbus).</p><p>《Like Tears In The Rain》<br />2023<br />尺寸不定<br />碎紙幣（歐元）</p><p>Carlos Aires 是一位將藝術視角聚焦於當代文化邊緣的跨範疇藝術家，有時帶著對社會的批判性和懷疑的見解，也以其權力象徵的研究而聞名。他為「藝聚空間」帶來了一個概念挑釁的全新藝術裝置，利用撕碎的舊版歐元，在地上形成眼前的奇觀異景，使我們憶起那些在作品中使用並破壞金錢的達達主義藝術家。藝術家以一種既具破壞力，又可再生的行為，在這件作品中進一步將這些鈔票貶為碎屑。他也挖掘了我們的經濟體系和權力架構中存在的不平等現象，以及在資本主義社會中財富不均的情況。通過這種徹底的轉化，藝術家似乎將勞動引人詬病的基本論調集中在經濟領域內。「究竟資本的面貌該是如何？我們看重的是甚麼？我們該如何利用這種價值？」這些都是藝術家希望通過作品帶出的題問。</p><p>Carlos Aires是一位多範疇藝術家，因其對現今社會憤世嫉俗的看法及對權力表現的研究而享譽國際。他畢業於西班牙格拉納達大學（Universidad de Granada）美術系，並在Fontys Academy（蒂爾堡）、HISK（安特衛普）和俄亥俄州立大學（哥倫布市）完成研究學位。</p></div><div><p><span style="font-size: 16px;"></span></p></div>
