A part of the 2025 NGV Art Book Fair, this pair of Riso posters originates directly from my sketchbooks — fragments drawn during ten-minute pauses between the weight of work and the drift of thought. These intervals of quiet wandering — en flâneur — become moments where the mind loosens its knots and turns inward, tracing the subtle threads of solitude, hypersensitivity, and emotions that surface without invitation, yet from everywhere at once. Each page holds the echo of an object that stirs nostalgia, or an imagined scene that breathes more vividly on paper than in life.
In collaboration with Sandwich Press, these sketches found new life through experiments in tone and colour. The deep, saturated blues evoke Riso’s peculiar duality — the solitude of thought and the convivial warmth of shared imagination. The coloured print, made through multiple rounds of changing Riso ink cartridges, produces hues impossible to replicate through other means. It romanticises, instead, the act of daydreaming, where melancholy becomes a playful engine, and boredom quietly transforms into the architecture of an imagined world. It is a dreamy experiment in blurring reality and reverie.
作为2025年NGV艺术书展的一部分，这对Riso海报直接源自我的速写本——在工作与思绪漂移之间十分钟的空隙里留下的片段。这些安静游走的时刻——如同漫步者——成为心绪解开、向内回望的瞬间，追溯孤独、敏感与情绪的细微脉络，它们无声浮现，却又无处不在。每一页都承载着某个物件的回响，唤起怀旧，或是让想象中的场景比现实更鲜活地呼吸。
与Sandwich Press的合作让这些速写通过色彩与调性的实验焕发新生。深沉饱和的蓝色唤起Riso独特的二元性——思想的孤寂与共享想象的温暖。彩色印刷通过多次更换Riso墨盒而完成，生成了无法以其他方式复制的色彩。它浪漫化了白日梦这一行为，让忧郁化为游戏的引擎，让无聊悄然转变为一座想象世界的结构。这是一次模糊现实与幻境的梦境实验。
