1
17000
4000
(Pljesak)
00:42
I am a papercutter.
2
27000
3000
Ja sam Izrezivačica Papira.
00:45
(Laughter)
3
30000
2000
(Smijeh)
00:47
I cut stories.
4
32000
3000
Izrezujem priče.
00:50
So my process is very straightforward.
5
35000
3000
Moj je proces zapravo vrlo izravan i razumljiv.
00:53
I take a piece of paper,
6
38000
2000
Uzmem list papira,
00:55
I visualize my story,
7
40000
3000
predočim si svoju priču,
00:58
sometimes I sketch, sometimes I don't.
8
43000
3000
ponekad skiciram, ponekad ne.
01:01
And as my image
9
46000
2000
No kako je moja priča
01:03
is already inside the paper,
10
48000
3000
već skrivena u papiru,
01:06
I just have to remove
11
51000
2000
sve što ja moram napraviti jest ukloniti
01:08
what's not from that story.
12
53000
3000
one dijeliće koji ne pripadaju toj priči.
01:11
So I didn't come to papercutting
13
56000
3000
No, nisam došla do rezuckanja papira
01:14
in a straight line.
14
59000
2000
pravocrtno.
01:16
In fact,
15
61000
2000
Zapravo,
01:18
I see it more as a spiral.
16
63000
2000
vidim to kao spiralu.
01:20
I was not born
17
65000
2000
Nisam rođena
01:22
with a blade in my hand.
18
67000
3000
s oštricom u svojoj ruci.
01:25
And I don't remember papercutting as a child.
19
70000
3000
I ne sjećam se da sam kao dijete rezuckala papir.
01:28
As a teenager,
20
73000
2000
Kao tinejdžerka,
01:30
I was sketching, drawing,
21
75000
2000
skicirala sam, crtala,
01:32
and I wanted to be an artist.
22
77000
2000
i priželjkivala postati umjetnicom.
01:34
But I was also a rebel.
23
79000
4000
Ali to je jednako tako bila i pobuna.
01:38
And I left everything
24
83000
2000
Ostavila sam se svega,
01:40
and went for a long series of odd jobs.
25
85000
4000
i prošla kroz niz neobičnih poslova.
01:44
So among them,
26
89000
2000
Među ostalim,
01:46
I have been a shepherdess,
27
91000
3000
bila sam pastirica,
01:49
a truck driver,
28
94000
2000
vozačica kamiona,
01:51
a factory worker,
29
96000
2000
tvornička radnica,
01:53
a cleaning lady.
30
98000
2000
čistačica.
01:55
I worked in tourism for one year
31
100000
2000
Radila sam u turizmu jednu godinu,
01:57
in Mexico,
32
102000
2000
u Meksiku,
01:59
one year in Egypt.
33
104000
3000
jednu godinu u Egiptu.
02:02
I moved for two years
34
107000
2000
Na dvije sam se godine preselila
02:04
in Taiwan.
35
109000
2000
u Taiwan.
02:06
And then I settled in New York
36
111000
2000
Da bih se potom skrasila u New Yorku
02:08
where I became a tour guide.
37
113000
2000
gdje sam postala vodička.
02:10
And I still worked as a tour leader,
38
115000
3000
I još sam uvijek radila kao vođa grupe,
02:13
traveled back and forth
39
118000
2000
putovala amo i tamo,
02:15
in China, Tibet and Central Asia.
40
120000
3000
kroz Kinu, Tibet i središnju Aziju.
02:18
So of course, it took time, and I was nearly 40,
41
123000
3000
To je, dakako, uzelo nešto vremena, i navršila sam gotovo 40,
02:21
and I decided it's time
42
126000
2000
kada sam odlučila da je vrijeme
02:23
to start as an artist.
43
128000
3000
da napokon započnem biti umjetnica.
02:27
(Applause)
44
132000
5000
(Pljesak)
02:32
I chose papercutting
45
137000
2000
Odabrala sam izrezivanje papira,
02:34
because paper is cheap,
46
139000
2000
jer papir je jefin,
02:36
it's light,
47
141000
2000
lagan,
02:38
and you can use it
48
143000
2000
i može se koristiti
02:40
in a lot of different ways.
49
145000
2000
na mnoge različite načine.
02:42
And I chose the language of silhouette
50
147000
4000
Odabrala sam jezik silueta,
02:46
because graphically it's very efficient.
51
151000
3000
jer je u grafičkom smislu vrlo efikasan.
02:49
And it's also just getting to the essential of things.
52
154000
6000
I isto tako, vodi u samu bit stvari.
02:55
So the word "silhouette"
53
160000
2000
Riječ ''silueta''
02:57
comes from a minister of finance,
54
162000
3000
dolazi zapravo od ministra financija,
03:00
Etienne de Silhouette.
55
165000
3000
koji se zvao Etienne de Silhouette.
03:03
And he slashed so many budgets
56
168000
4000
On je skresao toliko budžeta
03:07
that people said they couldn't afford
57
172000
2000
da bi ljudi govorili kako si više ne mogu priuštiti
03:09
paintings anymore,
58
174000
2000
kupovinu slika
03:11
and they needed to have their portrait
59
176000
2000
te da im treba njihov portret
03:13
"a la silhouette."
60
178000
2000
"a la silhouette."
03:15
(Laughter)
61
180000
2000
(Smijeh)
03:17
So I made series of images, cuttings,
62
182000
6000
Tako sam izradila niz slika, izrezaka,
03:23
and I assembled them in portfolios.
63
188000
5000
i od njih sastavila mape.
03:28
And people told me --
64
193000
2000
Ljudi bi mi govorili --
03:30
like these 36 views of the Empire State building --
65
195000
3000
poput ovih 36 pogleda na zgradu Empire State --
03:33
they told me, "You're making artist books."
66
198000
4000
govorili bi mi, ''Radiš umjetničke knjige.''
03:37
So artist books have a lot of definitions.
67
202000
3000
Umjetničke knjige mogu se definirati na brojne načine.
03:40
They come in a lot of different shapes.
68
205000
3000
Dolaze u brojnim i različitim oblicima.
03:43
But to me,
69
208000
2000
No za mene,
03:45
they are fascinating objects
70
210000
2000
oni su facsinantni predmeti
03:47
to visually narrate a story.
71
212000
3000
koji mogu vizualno ispričati priču.
03:50
They can be with words
72
215000
2000
Mogu sadržavati riječi
03:52
or without words.
73
217000
3000
ili biti bez teksta.
03:55
And I have a passion
74
220000
2000
A ja imam strast
03:57
for images and for words.
75
222000
3000
za slike i riječi.
04:00
I love pun
76
225000
2000
Volim doskočice
04:02
and the relation to the unconscious.
77
227000
3000
i poveznice s podsvijesnim.
04:05
I love oddities of languages.
78
230000
3000
Volim neobičnosti jezika.
04:08
And everywhere I lived, I learned the languages,
79
233000
2000
I gdje god da sam živjela, naučila bih jezike,
04:10
but never mastered them.
80
235000
2000
no nikada nisam njima u potpunosti ovladala.
04:12
So I'm always looking
81
237000
2000
Tako da neprestano tražim
04:14
for the false cognates
82
239000
2000
lažne srodnike
04:16
or identical words in different languages.
83
241000
3000
ili identične riječi u različitim jezicima.
04:19
So as you can guess, my mother tongue is French.
84
244000
3000
Kako vjerojatno možete primijetiti, moj je materinji jezik francuski.
04:22
And my daily language is English.
85
247000
4000
A jezik kojeg dnevno koristim je engleski.
04:26
So I did a series of work
86
251000
2000
Tako sam napravila niz djela
04:28
where it was identical words
87
253000
3000
u kojima sam koristila identične riječi
04:31
in French and in English.
88
256000
3000
u francuskom i engleskom jeziku.
04:34
So one of these works
89
259000
2000
Jedno od ovih djela zove se
04:36
is the "Spelling Spider."
90
261000
2000
''Pauk Slovko''.
04:38
So the Spelling Spider
91
263000
2000
Pauk Slovko je, znači,
04:40
is a cousin of the spelling bee.
92
265000
3000
rođak pčelice slovkarice.
04:43
(Laughter)
93
268000
2000
(Smijeh)
04:45
But it's much more connected to the Web.
94
270000
3000
Ali puno je više od nje umrežen u Web.
04:48
(Laughter)
95
273000
2000
(Smijeh)
04:50
And this spider
96
275000
2000
I, sad, ovaj pauk
04:52
spins a bilingual alphabet.
97
277000
3000
plete bilingualnu abecedu.
04:55
So you can read "architecture active"
98
280000
4000
Možete pročitati ''arhitektura aktivna''
04:59
or "active architecture."
99
284000
3000
ili ''aktivna arhitektura.''
05:02
So this spider goes through the whole alphabet
100
287000
3000
Tako ovaj pauk prolazi čitavu abecedu
05:05
with identical adjectives and substantives.
101
290000
4000
s identičnim pridjevima i imenicama.
05:09
So if you don't know one of these languages,
102
294000
3000
Pa ako ne poznajete jedan od ovih jezika,
05:12
it's instant learning.
103
297000
3000
događa se instantno učenje.
05:16
And one ancient form of the book
104
301000
3000
Jedan od najstarijih oblika u kojima dolaze knjige
05:19
is scrolls.
105
304000
2000
je svitak.
05:21
So scrolls are very convenient,
106
306000
3000
Svici su vrlo praktični,
05:24
because you can create a large image
107
309000
3000
jer mogu stvoriti veliku sliku
05:27
on a very small table.
108
312000
3000
na vrlo malenom stolu.
05:31
So the unexpected consequences of that
109
316000
4000
Neočekivana posljedica toga jest
05:35
is that you only see one part of your image,
110
320000
5000
da možeš vidjeti samo jedan dio svoje slike,
05:40
so it makes a very freestyle architecture.
111
325000
4000
pa to stvara jednu arhitekturu slobodnog stila.
05:44
And I'm making all those kinds of windows.
112
329000
4000
I izrađujem puno sličnih vrsta prozora.
05:48
So it's to look beyond the surface.
113
333000
3000
Oni pomažu da se pogleda ispod površine.
05:51
It's to have a look
114
336000
2000
Pomažu da se pogleda
05:53
at different worlds.
115
338000
2000
različite riječi.
05:55
And very often I've been an outsider.
116
340000
2000
Vrlo sam često i sama bila stranac.
05:57
So I want to see how things work
117
342000
3000
I željela sam vidjeti kako stvari funkcioniraju
06:00
and what's happening.
118
345000
2000
i što se događa.
06:02
So each window
119
347000
2000
Stoga je svaki prozor
06:04
is an image
120
349000
2000
slika
06:06
and is a world
121
351000
2000
i svijet
06:08
that I often revisit.
122
353000
2000
kojeg često posjećujem.
06:10
And I revisit this world
123
355000
2000
Često posjećujem ovaj svijet
06:12
thinking about the image
124
357000
2000
razmišljajući o slici
06:14
or cliché about what we want to do,
125
359000
3000
ili klišeju vezanim uz ono što želimo napraviti,
06:17
and what are the words, colloquialisms,
126
362000
2000
i o tome koje riječi i specifične izraze
06:19
that we have with the expressions.
127
364000
3000
koristimo s određenim izričajima.
06:22
It's all if.
128
367000
3000
To je sve o čemu se radi.
06:25
So what if we were living in balloon houses?
129
370000
5000
Dakle, što da živimo u kućama-balonima?
06:30
It would make a very uplifting world.
130
375000
4000
To bi bio jedan vrlo poletan svijet.
06:34
And we would leave a very low footprint on the planet.
131
379000
5000
A mi bismo ostavljali vrlo plitak otisak na planetu.
06:39
It would be so light.
132
384000
3000
Bilo bi to tako lagano.
06:42
So sometimes I view from the inside,
133
387000
5000
Tako ponekad promatram iznutra,
06:47
like EgoCentriCity
134
392000
2000
kao EgoCentroGrad,
06:49
and the inner circles.
135
394000
3000
i unutrašnje krugove.
06:52
Sometimes it's a global view,
136
397000
3000
Ponekad je to globalna perspektiva,
06:55
to see our common roots
137
400000
3000
koja traži zajedničke korijene
06:58
and how we can use them to catch dreams.
138
403000
4000
i kako ih možemo iskoristiti da uhvatimo snove.
07:02
And we can use them also
139
407000
2000
I možemo ih isto tako koristiti
07:04
as a safety net.
140
409000
2000
kao sigurnosnu mrežu.
07:06
And my inspirations
141
411000
3000
Moje su inspiracije
07:09
are very eclectic.
142
414000
3000
vrlo eklektične.
07:13
I'm influenced by everything I read,
143
418000
3000
Na mene utječe sve što pročitam,
07:16
everything I see.
144
421000
3000
sve što vidim.
07:19
I have some stories that are humorous,
145
424000
3000
Neke od mojih priča su smiješne,
07:22
like "Dead Beats."
146
427000
3000
kao, na primjer, ''Protuhe.''
07:25
(Laughter)
147
430000
2000
(Smijeh)
07:28
Other ones are historical.
148
433000
2000
Neke su povijesne.
07:30
Here it's "CandyCity."
149
435000
2000
Ovo je ''Slatkograd.''
07:32
It's a non-sugar-coated
150
437000
2000
Priča o šećeru
07:34
history of sugar.
151
439000
2000
bez šećerne glazure.
07:36
It goes from slave trade
152
441000
3000
Počinje od trgovine ropstvom
07:39
to over-consumption of sugar
153
444000
3000
i ide do pretjerane konzumacije šećera,
07:42
with some sweet moments in between.
154
447000
4000
prolazeći pritom kroz neke slađe trenutke između.
07:46
And sometimes I have an emotional response to news,
155
451000
3000
Ponekad, pak, doživim emocionalnu reakciju na vijesti,
07:49
such as the 2010 Haitian earthquake.
156
454000
4000
poput potresa na Haitiju 2010. godine.
07:55
Other times, it's not even my stories.
157
460000
3000
Ponekad se zapravo uopće ne radi o mojim pričama.
07:58
People tell me their lives,
158
463000
2000
Ljudi mi pričaju o svojim životima,
08:00
their memories, their aspirations,
159
465000
3000
svojim sjećanjima, svojim nadanjima,
08:03
and I create a mindscape.
160
468000
3000
i ja od toga stvorim krajolik uma.
08:06
I channel their history
161
471000
3000
Kanaliziram njihovu povijest
08:09
[so that] they have a place to go back
162
474000
3000
[tako da] bi oni dobili mjesto kojemu se mogu vratiti
08:12
to look at their life and its possibilities.
163
477000
4000
kako bi pogledali na svoj život i mogućnosti koje pruža.
08:16
I call them Freudian cities.
164
481000
4000
Zovem ih Freudovi gradovi.
08:20
I cannot speak for all my images,
165
485000
2000
Kako ne mogu govoriti u ime svih svojih priča,
08:22
so I'll just go through a few of my worlds
166
487000
4000
dotaknut ću samo kroz poneke od njih,
08:26
just with the title.
167
491000
2000
putem njihovih naslova.
08:28
"ModiCity."
168
493000
3000
''ModoGrad''
08:32
"ElectriCity."
169
497000
3000
''ElektroGrad.''
08:37
"MAD Growth on Columbus Circle."
170
502000
4000
''SULUD Rast na Kolumbusuvom krugu.''
08:45
"ReefCity."
171
510000
3000
''ReljefoGrad.''
08:49
"A Web of Time."
172
514000
4000
''Mreža Vremena''
08:55
"Chaos City."
173
520000
3000
''Grad Kaosa.''
09:00
"Daily Battles."
174
525000
3000
''Dnevne Bitke.''
09:05
"FeliCity."
175
530000
2000
''SrećoGrad.''
09:09
"Floating Islands."
176
534000
3000
''Plutajući Otoci.''
09:13
And at one point,
177
538000
2000
I, u jednom trenutku,
09:15
I had to do "The Whole Nine Yards."
178
540000
3000
morala sam izraditi i ''The Whole Nine Yards.'' (''Od glave do pete'')
09:18
So it's actually a papercut that's nine yards long.
179
543000
3000
To je izrezutak papira dugačak punih 9 yarda. (8.22 metrra)
09:21
(Laughter)
180
546000
2000
(Smijeh.)
09:23
So in life and in papercutting,
181
548000
2000
Kako u životu, tako i kod izrezivanja papira,
09:25
everything is connected.
182
550000
2000
sve je povezano.
09:27
One story leads to another.
183
552000
3000
Jedna priča vodi drugoj.
09:30
I was also interested
184
555000
2000
Zanimala me isto tako,
09:32
in the physicality of this format,
185
557000
2000
tjelesnost ovog izričaja,
09:34
because you have to walk to see it.
186
559000
3000
jer morate hodati kako bi ste ga ugledali.
09:37
And parallel to my cutting
187
562000
2000
S mojim izrezivanjem usporedno teče
09:39
is my running.
188
564000
2000
moje trčanje.
09:41
I started with small images,
189
566000
2000
Započela sam s malim slikama,
09:43
I started with a few miles.
190
568000
2000
započela sam s malim brojem kilometara.
09:45
Larger images, I started to run marathons.
191
570000
3000
S većim slikama došli su i maratoni.
09:48
Then I went to run 50K, then 60K.
192
573000
3000
Otrčala sam 50K pa potom 60K maraton.
09:51
Then I ran 50 miles -- ultramarathons.
193
576000
5000
Potom sam počela trčati ultramaratone od preko 80 kilometara.
09:56
And I still feel I'm running,
194
581000
3000
Još uvijek se osjećam kao da trčim,
09:59
it's just the training
195
584000
2000
kao da je to tek trening
10:01
to become a long-distance papercutter.
196
586000
3000
da postanem dugoprugaška izrezivačica papira.
10:04
(Laughter)
197
589000
2000
(Smijeh.)
10:06
And running gives me a lot of energy.
198
591000
4000
Trčanje mi daje mnogo energije.
10:10
Here is a three-week papercutting marathon
199
595000
3000
Evo trotjednog maratona u izrezivanju papira
10:13
at the Museum of Arts and Design
200
598000
3000
u Muzeju umjetnosti i dizajna
10:16
in New York City.
201
601000
2000
u New York City-ju.
10:18
The result is "Hells and Heavens."
202
603000
4000
Rezultat su ''Paklovi i rajevi.''
10:22
It's two panels 13 ft. high.
203
607000
3000
To su dva panela visoka gotovo 4 metra.
10:25
They were installed in the museum on two floors,
204
610000
3000
Bili su postavljeni na dva kata muzeja,
10:28
but in fact, it's a continuous image.
205
613000
2000
no zapravo se radi o slici bez prekida.
10:30
And I call it "Hells and Heavens"
206
615000
3000
Zovem ju ''Paklovi i rajevi''
10:33
because it's daily hells and daily heavens.
207
618000
4000
jer se radi o dnevnim paklenskim i rajskim trenucima.
10:37
There is no border in between.
208
622000
2000
Bez granice među njima.
10:39
Some people are born in hells,
209
624000
2000
Neki se ljudi rađaju u paklu,
10:41
and against all odds, they make it to heavens.
210
626000
3000
i uspiju, svim izgledima usprkos, stići do raja.
10:44
Other people make the opposite trip.
211
629000
2000
Drugi ljudi prijđu upravo suprotan put.
10:46
That's the border.
212
631000
2000
To je granica.
10:48
You have sweatshops in hells.
213
633000
2000
U paklu ćete naći tvornice koje iskorištavaju radnike.
10:50
You have people renting their wings in the heavens.
214
635000
3000
U raju ćete naći ljude koji iznajmljuju svoja krila.
10:53
And then you have all those individual stories
215
638000
3000
Nadalje imate sve te priče pojedinaca
10:56
where sometimes we even have the same action,
216
641000
4000
u kojima vidimo jednako djelovanje
11:00
and the result puts you in hells or in heavens.
217
645000
5000
ali rezultat vas stavlja u pakao ili raj.
11:05
So the whole "Hells and Heavens"
218
650000
2000
Čitav se koncept ''Paklova i rajeva''
11:07
is about free will
219
652000
3000
odnosi na slobodu volje
11:10
and determinism.
220
655000
2000
i determinizam.
11:12
And in papercutting,
221
657000
2000
A u izrezivanju papira
11:14
you have the drawing as the structure itself.
222
659000
4000
nalazite crtež kao strukturu za sebe.
11:18
So you can take it off the wall.
223
663000
3000
Tako ga možete skinuti sa zida.
11:22
Here it's an artist book installation
224
667000
3000
Ovdje je umjetnička knjiga kao instalacija
11:25
called "Identity Project."
225
670000
3000
nazvana ''Projekt: Identitet.''
11:28
It's not autobiographical identities.
226
673000
4000
Ne radi se o autobiografskim identitetima.
11:32
They are more our social identities.
227
677000
4000
Već prije o našim društvenim identitetima.
11:36
And then you can just walk behind them
228
681000
2000
Oni vam dopuštaju da odšetate iza njih
11:38
and try them on.
229
683000
2000
i isprobate ih.
11:40
So it's like the different layers
230
685000
2000
Radi se, znači, o različitim slojevima
11:42
of what we are made of
231
687000
2000
onoga od čega smo napravljeni
11:44
and what we present to the world
232
689000
2000
i onoga što predstavljamo svijetu
11:46
as an identity.
233
691000
2000
kao svoj identitet.
11:48
That's another artist book project.
234
693000
3000
To je još jedan projekt umjetničke knjige.
11:51
In fact, in the picture, you have two of them.
235
696000
4000
Zapravo na ovoj slici ih imate dva.
11:55
It's one I'm wearing
236
700000
2000
Jedan kojeg nosim ja
11:57
and one that's on exhibition
237
702000
2000
i jedan koji se nalazi na izložbi
11:59
at the Center for Books Arts in New York City.
238
704000
2000
u Centru za umjetnost knjige u New York City-ju.
12:01
Why do I call it a book?
239
706000
2000
Zašto to nazivam knjigom?
12:03
It's called "Fashion Statement,"
240
708000
2000
Zove se ''Iskaz mode''
12:05
and there are quotes about fashion,
241
710000
2000
i sadrži citate o modi,
12:07
so you can read it,
242
712000
2000
tako da ih možete pročitati,
12:09
and also,
243
714000
2000
ali, isto tako,
12:11
because the definition of artist book
244
716000
3000
radi toga što je definicija umjetničke knjige
12:14
is very generous.
245
719000
3000
vrlo širokogrudna.
12:17
So artist books, you take them off the wall.
246
722000
2000
Tako umjetničke knjige možete skinuti sa zida.
12:19
You take them for a walk.
247
724000
2000
Možete ih izvesti u šetnju.
12:21
You can also install them as public art.
248
726000
3000
A isto ih tako možete postaviti kao umjetničko djelo.
12:24
Here it's in Scottsdale, Arizona,
249
729000
3000
Ovdje se nalazi u Scottsdale-u, u Arizoni,
12:27
and it's called "Floating Memories."
250
732000
3000
i zove se ''Plutajuća sjećanja''.
12:30
So it's regional memories,
251
735000
3000
Radi se o regionalnim sjećanjima
12:33
and they are just randomly moved by the wind.
252
738000
3000
koje nasumično pokreće vjetar.
12:38
I love public art.
253
743000
2000
Volim javnu umjetnost.
12:40
And I entered competitions
254
745000
3000
Dugo sam se vremena
12:43
for a long time.
255
748000
2000
javljala na različite natječaje.
12:45
After eight years of rejection,
256
750000
3000
Nakon što su me osam godina odbijali
12:48
I was thrilled to get my first commission
257
753000
3000
bila sam oduševljena svojom prvom narudžbom
12:51
with the Percent for Art in New York City.
258
756000
3000
s Postotkom za Umjetnost iz New York City-ja.
12:54
It was for a merger station
259
759000
3000
Radilo se o povezanoj postaji
12:57
for emergency workers and firemen.
260
762000
3000
za hitnu službu i vatrogasce.
13:00
I made an artist book
261
765000
3000
Izradila sam umjetničku knjigu
13:03
that's in stainless steel
262
768000
2000
od nehrđajućeg čelika
13:05
instead of paper.
263
770000
2000
umjesto od papira.
13:07
I called it "Working in the Same Direction."
264
772000
4000
Nazvala sam je ''Raditi u istom pravcu.''
13:11
But I added weathervanes on both sides
265
776000
2000
No dodala sam vjetrokaze s obje strane
13:13
to show that they cover all directions.
266
778000
4000
kako bih pokazala da pokriva sve smjerove.
13:17
With public art,
267
782000
2000
S javnom umjetnošću
13:19
I could also make cut glass.
268
784000
3000
isto sam tako mogla izrađivati izrezano staklo.
13:22
Here it's faceted glass in the Bronx.
269
787000
3000
Ovdje vidite rezbareno staklo u Bronxu.
13:25
And each time I make public art,
270
790000
2000
Svakoga puta kada stvaram javnu umjetnost,
13:27
I want something that's really relevant
271
792000
2000
želim staviti nešto uistinu relevantno
13:29
to the place it's installed.
272
794000
2000
na mjesto na kojemu je postavljena.
13:31
So for the subway in New York,
273
796000
2000
Za podzemnu željeznicu u New Yorku,
13:33
I saw a correspondence
274
798000
3000
vidjela sam poveznicu
13:36
between riding the subway
275
801000
3000
između vožnje podzemnom željeznicom
13:39
and reading.
276
804000
2000
i čitanja.
13:41
It is travel in time, travel on time.
277
806000
3000
Radi se o putovanju kroz vrijeme, putovanju na vrijeme.
13:44
And Bronx literature,
278
809000
2000
A u književnosti Bronxa,
13:46
it's all about Bronx writers
279
811000
2000
radi se uglavnom o piscima iz Bronxa
13:48
and their stories.
280
813000
2000
i njihovim pričama.
13:52
Another glass project
281
817000
2000
Još jedan od staklenih projekata
13:54
is in a public library
282
819000
2000
postavljen je u javnoj knjižnici
13:56
in San Jose, California.
283
821000
3000
u San Jose-u, u Kaliforniji.
13:59
So I made a vegetable point of view
284
824000
3000
Izradila sam pogled na rast San Jose-a
14:02
of the growth of San Jose.
285
827000
2000
iz perspektive biljaka.
14:04
So I started in the center
286
829000
2000
Započela sam u središtu
14:06
with the acorn
287
831000
2000
s kukuruzom
14:08
for the Ohlone Indian civilization.
288
833000
4000
posvećenim indijanskoj civilizaciji Ohlone.
14:12
Then I have the fruit from Europe
289
837000
2000
Zatim imam voćku iz Europe
14:14
for the ranchers.
290
839000
2000
za rančere.
14:16
And then the fruit of the world for Silicon Valley today.
291
841000
3000
I zatim voćku svijeta za Silikonsku dolinu danas.
14:19
And it's still growing.
292
844000
2000
I još uvijek raste.
14:21
So the technique, it's cut,
293
846000
3000
Tehnika je, dakle, izrezivanje,
14:24
sandblasted, etched
294
849000
2000
pjeskarenje, usjecanje,
14:26
and printed glass into architectural glass.
295
851000
4000
i otiskivanje stakla u arhitektonsko staklo.
14:30
And outside the library,
296
855000
2000
A izvan knjižnice
14:32
I wanted to make a place to cultivate your mind.
297
857000
4000
želja mi je bila stvoriti mjesto za kultiviranje uma.
14:36
I took library material
298
861000
3000
Uzela sam knjižničnu građu
14:39
that had fruit in their title
299
864000
3000
koja je u naslovu imala voće
14:42
and I used them to make an orchard walk
300
867000
3000
i iskoristila je u izradi voćnjaka i šetnice
14:45
with these fruits of knowledge.
301
870000
2000
s tim plodovima znanja.
14:47
I also planted the bibliotree.
302
872000
3000
Isto tako, posadila sam bibliodrvo.
14:50
So it's a tree,
303
875000
2000
To je drvo
14:52
and in its trunk you have the roots of languages.
304
877000
3000
čije deblo sadrži korijene jezika.
14:55
And it's all about international writing systems.
305
880000
4000
Radi se o međunarodnim sustavima pisanja.
14:59
And on the branches
306
884000
2000
Na granama
15:01
you have library material growing.
307
886000
3000
vidite knjižničnu građu kako raste.
15:05
You can also have function and form
308
890000
3000
Isto tako možete imati funkciju i oblik
15:08
with public art.
309
893000
2000
u javnoj umjetnosti.
15:10
So in Aurora, Colorado it's a bench.
310
895000
2000
U Aurori, Colorado, to je klupa.
15:12
But you have a bonus with this bench.
311
897000
3000
Ali klupa koja vam donosi bonus.
15:15
Because if you sit a long time in summer in shorts,
312
900000
3000
Ako dugo vremena sjedite na klupi u kratkim hlačama,
15:18
you will walk away
313
903000
2000
odšetat ćete
15:20
with temporary branding of
314
905000
3000
s privremenim žigom
15:23
the story element on your thighs.
315
908000
2000
elementa priče na svojim bedrima.
15:25
(Laughter)
316
910000
3000
(Smijeh)
15:30
Another functional work,
317
915000
2000
Jedan drugi funkcionalni uradak
15:32
it's in the south side of Chicago
318
917000
2000
nalazi se s južne strane Chicaga
15:34
for a subway station.
319
919000
2000
na stanici podzemne željeznice.
15:36
And it's called "Seeds of the Future are Planted Today."
320
921000
4000
Zove se ''Sjemenke budućnosti siju se Danas.''
15:40
It's a story about transformation
321
925000
3000
Priča je to o transformaciji
15:43
and connections.
322
928000
2000
i poveznicama.
15:45
So it acts as a screen
323
930000
2000
Djeluje kao zastor
15:47
to protect the rail and the commuter,
324
932000
3000
koji štiti tračnice i putnika,
15:50
and not to have objects falling on the rails.
325
935000
3000
od toga da različite stvari padaju na prugu.
15:53
To be able to change fences
326
938000
3000
Moći pretvoriti ograde
15:56
and window guards into flowers,
327
941000
3000
i štitnike za prozore u cvijeće,
15:59
it's fantastic.
328
944000
2000
to je fantastično.
16:01
And here I've been working for the last three years
329
946000
3000
Radila sam kroz posljednje tri godine
16:04
with a South Bronx developer
330
949000
2000
s razvojnim radnikom iz Južnog Bronxa,
16:06
to bring art to life
331
951000
2000
na oživljavanju
16:08
to low-income buildings
332
953000
2000
zgrada koje koriste ljudi sa slabijim primanjima
16:10
and affordable housing.
333
955000
3000
kao i poticajne stanogradnje.
16:13
So each building has its own personality.
334
958000
3000
Tako svaka zgrada dobije svoju osobnost.
16:16
And sometimes it's about a legacy of the neighborhood,
335
961000
4000
Ponekad se pak radi o nasljeđu jednog susjedstva,
16:20
like in Morrisania, about the jazz history.
336
965000
4000
kao u Morrisaniji, o povijesti jazz-a.
16:24
And for other projects, like in Paris,
337
969000
3000
A kod drugih projekata, poput onog u Parizu,
16:27
it's about the name of the street.
338
972000
2000
radi se o nazivu ulice.
16:29
It's called Rue des Prairies -- Prairie Street.
339
974000
3000
Zove se Rue des Prairies -- Prerijska ulica.
16:32
So I brought back the rabbit,
340
977000
2000
Zato sam vratila zeca,
16:34
the dragonfly,
341
979000
2000
vilinskog konjica,
16:36
to stay in that street.
342
981000
2000
i postavila ih u tu ulicu.
16:38
And in 2009,
343
983000
2000
2009. godine
16:40
I was asked to make a poster
344
985000
3000
zatražili su me da napravim plakat
16:43
to be placed in the subway cars in New York City
345
988000
3000
koji bi bio postavljen u podzemnu garažu u new York City-ju
16:46
for a year.
346
991000
2000
tijekom godine dana.
16:48
So that was a very captive audience.
347
993000
4000
To je bila prilično zasužnjena publika.
16:52
And I wanted to give them an escape.
348
997000
4000
I željela sam im otvoriti prostor za bijeg.
16:56
I created "All Around Town."
349
1001000
3000
Stvorila sam ''Po čitavom gradu.''
16:59
It is a papercutting,
350
1004000
2000
To je bio izrezak papira,
17:01
and then after, I added color on the computer.
351
1006000
3000
i potom sam dodala boju putem kompjutora.
17:04
So I can call it techno-crafted.
352
1009000
3000
Tako da mogu reći da je bio tehnološki obojen.
17:07
And along the way,
353
1012000
2000
Usput na neki način
17:09
I'm kind of making papercuttings
354
1014000
3000
izrađujem izreske od papira
17:12
and adding other techniques.
355
1017000
2000
i dodajem druge tehnike.
17:14
But the result is always to have stories.
356
1019000
3000
No rezultat je uvijek isti .- dobiti priče.
17:17
So the stories, they have a lot of possibilities.
357
1022000
3000
Priče, dakle, imaju puno različitih mogućnosti.
17:20
They have a lot of scenarios.
358
1025000
2000
Imaju mnogo različitih scenarija.
17:22
I don't know the stories.
359
1027000
2000
Ne znam priče.
17:24
I take images from our global imagination,
360
1029000
4000
Uzimam slike iz globalne mašte,
17:28
from cliché, from things we are thinking about,
361
1033000
2000
iz klišeja, iz stvari o kojima razmišljamo,
17:30
from history.
362
1035000
2000
iz povijesti.
17:32
And everybody's a narrator,
363
1037000
2000
Na taj način svatko je narator,
17:34
because everybody has a story to tell.
364
1039000
3000
jer svatko ima priču koju želi ispričati.
17:37
But more important
365
1042000
2000
No, što je važnije jest,
17:39
is everybody has to make a story
366
1044000
2000
da svatko mora složiti priču
17:41
to make sense of the world.
367
1046000
2000
kako bi svijet imao smisla.
17:43
And in all these universes,
368
1048000
2000
I u svim ovim svemirima
17:45
it's like imagination is the vehicle
369
1050000
3000
mašta kao da se nalazi na biciklu
17:48
to be transported with,
370
1053000
2000
kojim se vozika okolo,
17:50
but the destination is our minds
371
1055000
3000
no odredište je u našem umu
17:53
and how we can reconnect
372
1058000
2000
i u načinu na koji se ponovno povezujemo
17:55
with the essential and with the magic.
373
1060000
2000
s onim suštinskim, onim magičnim.
17:57
And it's what story cutting is all about.
374
1062000
3000
Upravo je to u srcu smisla izrezivanja papira.
18:01
(Applause)
375
1066000
8000
(Pljesak.)
