A visual representation of "fence" by Eddie Tay

YCH Wong Wha San Secondary School
My work is about the relationship between the dreams and the eye.
We always have our eyes in our dreams and our goals
so I use an eye as the main focus of my work.
In the eye, it is filled with lots of things, such as money,
interests and career which represent some common dreams people have in life:
to be wealthy, to be successful, to be talented.
On the eye, as lashes, there are different sizes of fence.
The different sizes of fence represent different problems.
While some are harder to solve, some are not as difficult.
To realise one’s dream, one must pass the hurdles and obstacles to get to the skyscrapers.
fence
skyscrapers
all eyes looking at the centre
henry aspires to havard business
and throws away his harmonica
jenny is driving a car
into her global spider networked future
jonah unfurls like a creased carpet
on the eighth floor to watch voodoo tv
someone is working on her tablet cv
on winning beans and influencing people
dorcas must pass her abrsm
she bangs on her piano or else her mother
skyscrapers, fence
all eyes looking
