Artist pleas to save his chewing gum works 艺术家恳求保留自己用地面上的口香糖作的画

文字稿

Ben Wilson, Chewing gum artist
"The very first chewing gum art was done about 2003, something like that. I started doing a trail in 2004, and I'm from Barnet, so north London, so I started the trail in Barnet and worked my way right into the centre of London.

本·威尔逊       用地面上的口香糖作画的艺术家
“我第一次在嚼过的口香糖上作画大概是在2003年。2004年，我开始沿着一条路线在地面上的口香糖上作画，我来自北伦敦巴尼特区，所以我从巴尼特区开始，一路一直画到了伦敦市中心。”

"So, I am taking something that's literally thrown away and disgusting, taking 'eugh' and making it into 'mmm'. Everyone kept on coming up to me and saying, 'Will you do one for me?' "

“我用这种被扔掉的垃圾进行创作，把令人作呕的东西变成一种惊喜。大家都跑来问我 ‘能不能用口香糖为我画一幅作品？’ ”

"People from all walks of life, love messages, rest in peace pictures, there'[re] 'Will you marry me?' pictures – they can't, you know, they can't go! There's something that they can discover, and often you will see children jumping from picture to picture to picture. They'll destroy that trail and I'm thinking they're killjoys. Please, please celebrate the art. The art is lovely!"

“来自各行各业的人，[我为他们创作] 传递爱意的作品、纪念逝者的图画、还有用来求婚的图画，这些不该被清除掉！这些作品让人们发现乐趣，你经常能看到小孩子在我的画作之间跳来跳去。清洁这座桥的人要清除我在这条路线上的作品，我觉得这很扫兴。请尊重和拥抱艺术。艺术多美妙！”

"People come from all over the world and I celebrate the people that I meet when I work. And I think it's a poignant kind of message: let's transform rubbish into art. Let's make this world a better place."

“我在工作的过程中遇到来自世界各地的人，我非常欢迎他们，很高兴和他们因艺术结缘。我认为我的作品传递了一个恰合时宜的重要信息：让我们把垃圾变成艺术。让我们把世界变成一个更美好的地方。”
