Kill Me or Change

Human Earthquake
Chin Chih Yang

"Kill Me or Change" is one of 13 artist project to
receive the Franklian Furnace grant award for
2011-2012.

Now I would like to invite you or your organization to help, and involve with this project, if you or your organization are interesting, please contact me at chin@123soho.com

Artist Chin Chih Yang creates a unique relationship between art and performance. The proposed project, Kill Me or Change, reflects the environmental movement slogan "Recycle or Die." This art event will challenge viewer-participants to contemplate the effects of over-consumption. The event, when realized, will mount 30,000 aluminum cans in a mesh net, suspended at the end of a crane and hovering over the head of the artist. The final execution will require an audience member to pull a string and (safely) release the contents- which represents the average consumption of cans over one person's lifetime- onto the head of Chin Chih Yang.


I am bringing this work to New York City,
to bring a message to the whole world.

Recently, New York experienced a rare earthquake (Aug. 23) and the powerful force of Hurricane Irene (Aug. 27) within a span of a few days. New York very rarely experiences natural disasters, but for populations in many other places in the world, earthquakes and other destructive natural events—hurricanes and typhoons, floods, volcanic eruptions, landslides, drought—are frequent occurrences resulting in catastrophic damage and tremendous numbers of deaths and injuries, which continuously impact future generations, and social and economic progress...
