Felix Gonzáles-Torres

Untitled (Perfect Lovers) 1987-1990

Two identical synchronised clocks placed side-by-side on a light blue painted wall. At first they keep time together, but gradually they move out of sync as the batteries drain and the clocks slow and eventually stop.

The piece reflects the gradual deterioration of Ross Laycock, Felix’s partner, who was dying of AIDS at the time these works were made. Felix would die of AIDS six years later.

Yi-Fei Chen, Tear Gun. 2016

From Dezeen:

After an altercation with a tutor, Design Academy Eindhoven graduate Yi-Fei Chen created this visual metaphor to show her personal struggle with speaking her mind... Chen has now visualised this personal struggle with speaking her mind as a conceptual graduation project – a brass gun that fires tears she has collected.
