WARNINGS

who has that post about the big statue with like a snake pillar body and sunburst head w/black spot on it that turns to look at you

A of all, thank you for knocking that one out in 2 minutes flat. B of all, for context, right before making this post i got this text

[id: received text message of a photo of xu zhen's artwork Hello, the work described in the previous post. replying text message reading in all caps "that bitch is at Stanford?"]

apparently it's not doing the turning-to-look thing at present so i wanted to give proof. also now i need to visit!!!

there's two versions of this statue! her name is "hello", and both this and the moving version are by artist Xu Zhen. the first iteration, made of silicone, steel, resin, and animatronic mechanisms, has been moving from museum to museum - and very much still does turn to look you in the face, sometimes getting very close up to do so!!

this one that youve spotted in the wild is also named Hello but was made as part of the ongoing Standford Plinth project! she's made of cast bronze, will sit here for two years, and then be rotated out for another statue. i think she is so wonderful you are so lucky to see her!!! :D

xu zhen describes his big column snake with a cavity for a head as "cute". i think he is right :)

here's an article about it if you'd like to read more!

LORE!!!

“poison is the coward’s weapon” boo hoo sounds like someone’s sodium channels are easily inhibited

if your deoxyribonucleosides depurinate I just don’t see how that’s my problem

like, it’s not like I asked your vesicle fusion mediating proteins to cleave and block acetylcholine release... you can’t keep deflecting responsibility for your own actions onto me just because I “put something in your food”

“you’re trying to kill me” yeah well have you tried being less sensitive

[id: an upside-down figure with glowing eyes, seen from the waist up. they are pale blue and bald, with no facial features but wide white eyes glowing out of their shadowed face. orange light spills upwards out of their eye and off the canvas, intercepted and split into several streams by their fingers. end id.] 

and the watcher drinks it all in

HelloFlesh, just an endless supply of meat arriving at your house…
