17000
4000
(Aplauz)
00:42
I am a papercutter.
2
27000
3000
Ja sam rezačica papira.
00:45
(Laughter)
3
30000
2000
(Smeh)
00:47
I cut stories.
4
32000
3000
Ja izrezujem priče.
00:50
So my process is very straightforward.
5
35000
3000
Koristim veoma jednostavan postupak.
00:53
I take a piece of paper,
6
38000
2000
Uzmem parče papira,
00:55
I visualize my story,
7
40000
3000
zamislim svoju priču kao sliku,
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
I kada je moja slika
01:03
is already inside the paper,
10
48000
3000
već u papiru,
01:06
I just have to remove
11
51000
2000
ja samo treba da odstranim
01:08
what's not from that story.
12
53000
3000
ono što nije iz te priče.
01:11
So I didn't come to papercutting
13
56000
3000
Moj put do rezanja papira
01:14
in a straight line.
14
59000
2000
nije bio prav.
01:16
In fact,
15
61000
2000
Zapravo,
01:18
I see it more as a spiral.
16
63000
2000
zamišljam ga više kao spiralu.
01:20
I was not born
17
65000
2000
Nisam se rodila
01:22
with a blade in my hand.
18
67000
3000
sa makazama u rukama.
01:25
And I don't remember papercutting as a child.
19
70000
3000
I ne sećam se da sam seckala papir kao dete.
01:28
As a teenager,
20
73000
2000
Kao tinejdžerka
01:30
I was sketching, drawing,
21
75000
2000
crtala sam, skicirala
01:32
and I wanted to be an artist.
22
77000
2000
i htela da budem umetnica.
01:34
But I was also a rebel.
23
79000
4000
Ali bila sam i buntovnica.
01:38
And I left everything
24
83000
2000
I ostavila sam sve
01:40
and went for a long series of odd jobs.
25
85000
4000
i započela niz čudnih poslova.
01:44
So among them,
26
89000
2000
Između ostalog,
01:46
I have been a shepherdess,
27
91000
3000
bila sam čobanica,
01:49
a truck driver,
28
94000
2000
vozačica kamiona,
01:51
a factory worker,
29
96000
2000
radnica u fabrici,
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 godinu dana
01:57
in Mexico,
32
102000
2000
u Meksiku,
01:59
one year in Egypt.
33
104000
3000
godinu dana u Egiptu.
02:02
I moved for two years
34
107000
2000
Preselila sam se na dve godine
02:04
in Taiwan.
35
109000
2000
na Tajvan.
02:06
And then I settled in New York
36
111000
2000
Onda sam se skrasila u Njujorku
02:08
where I became a tour guide.
37
113000
2000
i tu postala turistički vodič.
02:10
And I still worked as a tour leader,
38
115000
3000
I dalje sam radila kao vođa puta
02:13
traveled back and forth
39
118000
2000
i putovala puno
02:15
in China, Tibet and Central Asia.
40
120000
3000
po Kini, Tibetu i Centralnoj Aziji.
02:18
So of course, it took time, and I was nearly 40,
41
123000
3000
I naravno, vreme je prolazilo, imala sam skoro 40 godina,
02:21
and I decided it's time
42
126000
2000
i odlučila sam da je vreme
02:23
to start as an artist.
43
128000
3000
da postanem umetnica.
02:27
(Applause)
44
132000
5000
(Aplauz)
02:32
I chose papercutting
45
137000
2000
Izabrala sam rezanje papira
02:34
because paper is cheap,
46
139000
2000
zato što je papir jeftin,
02:36
it's light,
47
141000
2000
lagan,
02:38
and you can use it
48
143000
2000
i može da se koristi
02:40
in a lot of different ways.
49
145000
2000
na mnogo načina.
02:42
And I chose the language of silhouette
50
147000
4000
I odabrala sam jezik silueta
02:46
because graphically it's very efficient.
51
151000
3000
zato što je grafički veoma efektan.
02:49
And it's also just getting to the essential of things.
52
154000
6000
I zato što pogađa samu srž stvari.
02:55
So the word "silhouette"
53
160000
2000
Reč silueta
02:57
comes from a minister of finance,
54
162000
3000
dolazi od jednog ministra finansija,
03:00
Etienne de Silhouette.
55
165000
3000
Etjena de Silueta.
03:03
And he slashed so many budgets
56
168000
4000
On je toliko srezao budžet,
03:07
that people said they couldn't afford
57
172000
2000
da su ljudi rekli da nemaju više para
03:09
paintings anymore,
58
174000
2000
za slike,
03:11
and they needed to have their portrait
59
176000
2000
nego moraju da naručuju sebi portrete
03:13
"a la silhouette."
60
178000
2000
"a la siluet".
03:15
(Laughter)
61
180000
2000
(Smeh)
03:17
So I made series of images, cuttings,
62
182000
6000
Tako sam napravila seriju slika, izrezaka,
03:23
and I assembled them in portfolios.
63
188000
5000
i grupisala ih u mape.
03:28
And people told me --
64
193000
2000
I ljudi su mi rekli --
03:30
like these 36 views of the Empire State building --
65
195000
3000
kao ovih 36 pogleda na Empajer stejt bilding --
03:33
they told me, "You're making artist books."
66
198000
4000
rekli su mi: "Ti praviš umetničke knjige."
03:37
So artist books have a lot of definitions.
67
202000
3000
Ima puno definicija umetničkih knjiga.
03:40
They come in a lot of different shapes.
68
205000
3000
One mogu biti različitih oblika.
03:43
But to me,
69
208000
2000
Ali, za mene,
03:45
they are fascinating objects
70
210000
2000
one su fascinantan način
03:47
to visually narrate a story.
71
212000
3000
da se vizuelno ispriča priča.
03:50
They can be with words
72
215000
2000
To mogu biti knjige sa rečima
03:52
or without words.
73
217000
3000
ili bez reči.
03:55
And I have a passion
74
220000
2000
A ja strastveno volim
03:57
for images and for words.
75
222000
3000
i slike i reči.
04:00
I love pun
76
225000
2000
Volim igre reči
04:02
and the relation to the unconscious.
77
227000
3000
i njihovu povezanost sa podsvešću.
04:05
I love oddities of languages.
78
230000
3000
Volim neobične pojave u jezicima.
04:08
And everywhere I lived, I learned the languages,
79
233000
2000
I gde god sam živela, učila sam jezike,
04:10
but never mastered them.
80
235000
2000
ali nikad nisam ovladavala njima.
04:12
So I'm always looking
81
237000
2000
Tako uvek tražim
04:14
for the false cognates
82
239000
2000
lažne prijatelje
04:16
or identical words in different languages.
83
241000
3000
ili iste reči u različitim jezicima.
04:19
So as you can guess, my mother tongue is French.
84
244000
3000
Kao što možete da pretpostavite, moj maternji jezik je francuski.
04:22
And my daily language is English.
85
247000
4000
A moj svakodnevni jezik je engleski.
04:26
So I did a series of work
86
251000
2000
Uradila sam seriju radova
04:28
where it was identical words
87
253000
3000
sa identičnim rečima
04:31
in French and in English.
88
256000
3000
u francuskom i engleskom.
04:34
So one of these works
89
259000
2000
Jedan od tih radova
04:36
is the "Spelling Spider."
90
261000
2000
je "Pismeni pauk".
04:38
So the Spelling Spider
91
263000
2000
A Pismeni pauk
04:40
is a cousin of the spelling bee.
92
265000
3000
je pametan "kao pčelica".
04:43
(Laughter)
93
268000
2000
(Smeh)
04:45
But it's much more connected to the Web.
94
270000
3000
I mnogo je više "umrežen".
04:48
(Laughter)
95
273000
2000
(Smeh)
04:50
And this spider
96
275000
2000
Ovaj pauk
04:52
spins a bilingual alphabet.
97
277000
3000
plete dvojezični alfabet.
04:55
So you can read "architecture active"
98
280000
4000
Dakle, natpis "Aktivna arhitektura"
04:59
or "active architecture."
99
284000
3000
možete pročitati na francuskom i na engleskom.
05:02
So this spider goes through the whole alphabet
100
287000
3000
Tako ovaj pauk prolazi kroz čitav alfabet
05:05
with identical adjectives and substantives.
101
290000
4000
uz pomoć identičnih prideva i imenica.
05:09
So if you don't know one of these languages,
102
294000
3000
Ako ne znate jedan od ovih jezika,
05:12
it's instant learning.
103
297000
3000
vi odmah nešto naučite.
05:16
And one ancient form of the book
104
301000
3000
Jedan od starih oblika knjige
05:19
is scrolls.
105
304000
2000
je svitak.
05:21
So scrolls are very convenient,
106
306000
3000
Svitak je veoma zgodan
05:24
because you can create a large image
107
309000
3000
jer možete napraviti veliku sliku
05:27
on a very small table.
108
312000
3000
na veoma malom stolu.
05:31
So the unexpected consequences of that
109
316000
4000
Neočekivana posledica toga
05:35
is that you only see one part of your image,
110
320000
5000
je da vidite samo jedan deo slike,
05:40
so it makes a very freestyle architecture.
111
325000
4000
pa se dobija arhitektura veoma slobodnog stila.
05:44
And I'm making all those kinds of windows.
112
329000
4000
Ja pravim puno različitih prozora.
05:48
So it's to look beyond the surface.
113
333000
3000
A to je da bismo pogledali ispod površine.
05:51
It's to have a look
114
336000
2000
Da bismo zavirili
05:53
at different worlds.
115
338000
2000
u drugačije svetove.
05:55
And very often I've been an outsider.
116
340000
2000
Ja sam često bila stranac.
05:57
So I want to see how things work
117
342000
3000
I hoću da znam kako stvari funkcionišu
06:00
and what's happening.
118
345000
2000
i šta se dešava.
06:02
So each window
119
347000
2000
Svaki prozor
06:04
is an image
120
349000
2000
je slika
06:06
and is a world
121
351000
2000
i svet
06:08
that I often revisit.
122
353000
2000
kome se često vraćam.
06:10
And I revisit this world
123
355000
2000
Vraćam se tom svetu
06:12
thinking about the image
124
357000
2000
i razmišljam o slici
06:14
or cliché about what we want to do,
125
359000
3000
ili klišeu o onome što želimo da uradimo,
06:17
and what are the words, colloquialisms,
126
362000
2000
i o tome šta znače žargonske reči
06:19
that we have with the expressions.
127
364000
3000
koje koristimo u izrazima.
06:22
It's all if.
128
367000
3000
I sve je pretpostavka.
06:25
So what if we were living in balloon houses?
129
370000
5000
A šta bi bilo da živimo u balonima?
06:30
It would make a very uplifting world.
130
375000
4000
To bi bio jedan veoma poletan svet.
06:34
And we would leave a very low footprint on the planet.
131
379000
5000
Ostavili bismo veoma mali karbonski otisak na planeti.
06:39
It would be so light.
132
384000
3000
Sve bi bilo veoma lagano.
06:42
So sometimes I view from the inside,
133
387000
5000
Ponekad posmatram stvari iznutra,
06:47
like EgoCentriCity
134
392000
2000
kao EgocentroGrad
06:49
and the inner circles.
135
394000
3000
sa unutrašnjim krugovima.
06:52
Sometimes it's a global view,
136
397000
3000
Ponekad posmatram globalno,
06:55
to see our common roots
137
400000
3000
da bih videla naše zajedničke korene
06:58
and how we can use them to catch dreams.
138
403000
4000
i kako ih možemo koristiti za hvatanje snova.
07:02
And we can use them also
139
407000
2000
A možemo ih koristi još
07:04
as a safety net.
140
409000
2000
i kao sigurnosnu mrežu.
07:06
And my inspirations
141
411000
3000
Moje inspiracije
07:09
are very eclectic.
142
414000
3000
su mnogobrojne.
07:13
I'm influenced by everything I read,
143
418000
3000
Na mene utiče sve što čitam,
07:16
everything I see.
144
421000
3000
sve što vidim.
07:19
I have some stories that are humorous,
145
424000
3000
Imam neke šaljive priče,
07:22
like "Dead Beats."
146
427000
3000
kao "Strava Ritam".
07:25
(Laughter)
147
430000
2000
(Smeh)
07:28
Other ones are historical.
148
433000
2000
Neke su istorijske.
07:30
Here it's "CandyCity."
149
435000
2000
Ovo je "SlatkišGrad".
07:32
It's a non-sugar-coated
150
437000
2000
To je istorija šećera
07:34
history of sugar.
151
439000
2000
bez glazure.
07:36
It goes from slave trade
152
441000
3000
Proteže se od trgovine robljem
07:39
to over-consumption of sugar
153
444000
3000
do prekomernog korišćenja šećera
07:42
with some sweet moments in between.
154
447000
4000
sa malo slatkih momenata između.
07:46
And sometimes I have an emotional response to news,
155
451000
3000
A ponekad imam emotivnu reakciju na vesti,
07:49
such as the 2010 Haitian earthquake.
156
454000
4000
kao na zemljotres na Haitiju 2010. godine.
07:55
Other times, it's not even my stories.
157
460000
3000
Ponekad to uopšte nisu moje priče.
07:58
People tell me their lives,
158
463000
2000
Ljudi mi ispričaju svoje živote,
08:00
their memories, their aspirations,
159
465000
3000
svoja sećanja, svoje želje,
08:03
and I create a mindscape.
160
468000
3000
i ja napravim pejzaž njihovih misli.
08:06
I channel their history
161
471000
3000
Ja kanališem njihovu istoriju
08:09
[so that] they have a place to go back
162
474000
3000
tako da mogu da pogledaju u prošlost
08:12
to look at their life and its possibilities.
163
477000
4000
i razmisle o svom životu i mogućnostima koje on pruža.
08:16
I call them Freudian cities.
164
481000
4000
Zovem ih frojdovski gradovi.
08:20
I cannot speak for all my images,
165
485000
2000
Ne mogu da govorim o svim svojim slikama,
08:22
so I'll just go through a few of my worlds
166
487000
4000
pa ću da preletim kroz nekoliko svojih svetova
08:26
just with the title.
167
491000
2000
samo uz naslove.
08:28
"ModiCity."
168
493000
3000
"Mali grad".
08:32
"ElectriCity."
169
497000
3000
"ElektroGrad".
08:37
"MAD Growth on Columbus Circle."
170
502000
4000
"Čudo od muzeja niče na trgu Kolumbo".
08:45
"ReefCity."
171
510000
3000
"Grad greben".
08:49
"A Web of Time."
172
514000
4000
"Vremenska mreža",
08:55
"Chaos City."
173
520000
3000
"Grad haosa".
09:00
"Daily Battles."
174
525000
3000
"Dnevne bitke".
09:05
"FeliCity."
175
530000
2000
"Grad radosti".
09:09
"Floating Islands."
176
534000
3000
"Lebdeća ostrva".
09:13
And at one point,
177
538000
2000
A jednom sam morala
09:15
I had to do "The Whole Nine Yards."
178
540000
3000
da izradim "Svih 9 jardi" (od početka do kraja),
09:18
So it's actually a papercut that's nine yards long.
179
543000
3000
To je papir dugačak 9 jardi (8,2 metra).
09:21
(Laughter)
180
546000
2000
(Smeh)
09:23
So in life and in papercutting,
181
548000
2000
U životu i u rezanju 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
Mene je zanimala
09:32
in the physicality of this format,
185
557000
2000
i fizička strana ovog formata,
09:34
because you have to walk to see it.
186
559000
3000
jer morate da hodate da biste ga videli.
09:37
And parallel to my cutting
187
562000
2000
A uporedo sa izrezivanjem
09:39
is my running.
188
564000
2000
bavim se i trčanjem.
09:41
I started with small images,
189
566000
2000
Počela sam sa malim slikama,
09:43
I started with a few miles.
190
568000
2000
i sa nekoliko kilometara.
09:45
Larger images, I started to run marathons.
191
570000
3000
Sa većim slikama, počela sam da trčim maratone.
09:48
Then I went to run 50K, then 60K.
192
573000
3000
Onda sam počela da trčim 50 km, pa 60 km.
09:51
Then I ran 50 miles -- ultramarathons.
193
576000
5000
Onda sam trčala 80 km - ultramaratone.
09:56
And I still feel I'm running,
194
581000
3000
I i dalje mi se čini da trčim,
09:59
it's just the training
195
584000
2000
to je trening,
10:01
to become a long-distance papercutter.
196
586000
3000
da postanem dugometražni rezač papira.
10:04
(Laughter)
197
589000
2000
(Smeh)
10:06
And running gives me a lot of energy.
198
591000
4000
Zahvaljujući trčanju imam puno energije.
10:10
Here is a three-week papercutting marathon
199
595000
3000
Ovo je tronedeljni maraton u rezanju papira
10:13
at the Museum of Arts and Design
200
598000
3000
u Muzeju umetnosti i dizajna
10:16
in New York City.
201
601000
2000
u Njujorku.
10:18
The result is "Hells and Heavens."
202
603000
4000
Rezultat toga su "Paklovi i rajevi".
10:22
It's two panels 13 ft. high.
203
607000
3000
To su dva panela visoka skoro 4 metra.
10:25
They were installed in the museum on two floors,
204
610000
3000
Postavljeni su na dva sprata u muzeju,
10:28
but in fact, it's a continuous image.
205
613000
2000
ali je to, zapravo, jedna celina.
10:30
And I call it "Hells and Heavens"
206
615000
3000
Zovem ih "Paklovi i rajevi",
10:33
because it's daily hells and daily heavens.
207
618000
4000
jer to su svakodnevni paklovi i svakodnevni rajevi.
10:37
There is no border in between.
208
622000
2000
Između njih ne postoji granica.
10:39
Some people are born in hells,
209
624000
2000
Neki ljudi su rođeni u paklu,
10:41
and against all odds, they make it to heavens.
210
626000
3000
ali uprkos svim izgledima, uspeju da dođu do raja.
10:44
Other people make the opposite trip.
211
629000
2000
Neki, pak, imaju obrnut životni put.
10:46
That's the border.
212
631000
2000
Ovo je granica.
10:48
You have sweatshops in hells.
213
633000
2000
U paklu imamo izrabljivačke fabrike.
10:50
You have people renting their wings in the heavens.
214
635000
3000
U raju ljudi iznajmljuju svoja krila.
10:53
And then you have all those individual stories
215
638000
3000
A onda vidimo sve te individualne priče
10:56
where sometimes we even have the same action,
216
641000
4000
gde ponekad isti postupci
11:00
and the result puts you in hells or in heavens.
217
645000
5000
odvode neke ljude u pakao, a neke u raj.
11:05
So the whole "Hells and Heavens"
218
650000
2000
Tako "Paklovi i rajevi"
11:07
is about free will
219
652000
3000
govore o slobodnoj volji
11:10
and determinism.
220
655000
2000
i determinizmu.
11:12
And in papercutting,
221
657000
2000
U rezanju papira
11:14
you have the drawing as the structure itself.
222
659000
4000
crtež postaje i sama struktura.
11:18
So you can take it off the wall.
223
663000
3000
I on se može skinuti sa zida.
11:22
Here it's an artist book installation
224
667000
3000
Ovo je umetnička knjiga kao instalacija,
11:25
called "Identity Project."
225
670000
3000
koja se zove "Projekat: Identitet".
11:28
It's not autobiographical identities.
226
673000
4000
Ovde se ne radi o autobiografskim identitetima.
11:32
They are more our social identities.
227
677000
4000
To su pre naši društveni identiteti.
11:36
And then you can just walk behind them
228
681000
2000
I možete jednostavno proći iza njih
11:38
and try them on.
229
683000
2000
i probati ih.
11:40
So it's like the different layers
230
685000
2000
To su različiti slojevi
11:42
of what we are made of
231
687000
2000
od kojih smo sačinjeni
11:44
and what we present to the world
232
689000
2000
i koje predstavljamo svetu
11:46
as an identity.
233
691000
2000
kao svoj identitet.
11:48
That's another artist book project.
234
693000
3000
Ovo je drugi projekat umetničkih knjiga.
11:51
In fact, in the picture, you have two of them.
235
696000
4000
Zapravo, na slici vidite dva projekta.
11:55
It's one I'm wearing
236
700000
2000
Onaj koji nosim
11:57
and one that's on exhibition
237
702000
2000
i onaj koji je izložen
11:59
at the Center for Books Arts in New York City.
238
704000
2000
u Centru za umetnost knjige u Njujorku.
12:01
Why do I call it a book?
239
706000
2000
Zašto ih nazivam knjigama?
12:03
It's called "Fashion Statement,"
240
708000
2000
Zovu se "Modne poruke",
12:05
and there are quotes about fashion,
241
710000
2000
na njima su citati o modi,
12:07
so you can read it,
242
712000
2000
možete ih čitati,
12:09
and also,
243
714000
2000
a isto tako,
12:11
because the definition of artist book
244
716000
3000
zato što je definicija umetničke knjige
12:14
is very generous.
245
719000
3000
veoma velikodušna.
12:17
So artist books, you take them off the wall.
246
722000
2000
Dakle, umetničke knjige se mogu skinuti sa zida.
12:19
You take them for a walk.
247
724000
2000
Mogu se izvesti u šetnju.
12:21
You can also install them as public art.
248
726000
3000
A, mogu se izložiti i kao javna umetnost.
12:24
Here it's in Scottsdale, Arizona,
249
729000
3000
Ovo je u Skotsdejlu, u Arizoni,
12:27
and it's called "Floating Memories."
250
732000
3000
a zove se "Lebdeća sećanja".
12:30
So it's regional memories,
251
735000
3000
U pitanju su regionalna sećanja,
12:33
and they are just randomly moved by the wind.
252
738000
3000
koja nasumično pomera vetar.
12:38
I love public art.
253
743000
2000
Ja volim javnu umetnost.
12:40
And I entered competitions
254
745000
3000
Prijavljivala sam se na konkurse
12:43
for a long time.
255
748000
2000
dosta dugo.
12:45
After eight years of rejection,
256
750000
3000
Nakon osam godina negativnih odgovora,
12:48
I was thrilled to get my first commission
257
753000
3000
bila sam presrećna kada sam dobila poziv
12:51
with the Percent for Art in New York City.
258
756000
3000
za program Procenat za umenost u Njujorku.
12:54
It was for a merger station
259
759000
3000
Bilo je to za zajedničku stanicu
12:57
for emergency workers and firemen.
260
762000
3000
hitne pomoći i vatrogasaca.
13:00
I made an artist book
261
765000
3000
Napravila sam umetničku knjigu
13:03
that's in stainless steel
262
768000
2000
od nerđajućeg čelika
13:05
instead of paper.
263
770000
2000
umesto od papira.
13:07
I called it "Working in the Same Direction."
264
772000
4000
Nazvala sam je "Raditi u istom smeru".
13:11
But I added weathervanes on both sides
265
776000
2000
Ali sam dodala i vertokaze sa obe strane
13:13
to show that they cover all directions.
266
778000
4000
da pokažem da pokriva sve smerove.
13:17
With public art,
267
782000
2000
Kroz javnu umetnost
13:19
I could also make cut glass.
268
784000
3000
mogla sam još rezati i staklo.
13:22
Here it's faceted glass in the Bronx.
269
787000
3000
Ovo je rezano staklo u Bronksu.
13:25
And each time I make public art,
270
790000
2000
Svaki put kada stvaram javnu umetnost,
13:27
I want something that's really relevant
271
792000
2000
želim nešto što je zaista važno
13:29
to the place it's installed.
272
794000
2000
za tu lokaciju.
13:31
So for the subway in New York,
273
796000
2000
Za metro u Njujorku,
13:33
I saw a correspondence
274
798000
3000
pronašla sam povezanost
13:36
between riding the subway
275
801000
3000
između vožnje metroom
13:39
and reading.
276
804000
2000
i čitanja.
13:41
It is travel in time, travel on time.
277
806000
3000
To je putovanje kroz vreme, putovanje na vreme.
13:44
And Bronx literature,
278
809000
2000
A u književnosti Bronksa
13:46
it's all about Bronx writers
279
811000
2000
najvažniji su pisci iz Bronksa
13:48
and their stories.
280
813000
2000
i njihove priče.
13:52
Another glass project
281
817000
2000
Još jedno delo od stakla
13:54
is in a public library
282
819000
2000
je u javnoj biblioteci
13:56
in San Jose, California.
283
821000
3000
u San Hoseu, u Kaliforniji.
13:59
So I made a vegetable point of view
284
824000
3000
Predstavila sam rast San Hosea
14:02
of the growth of San Jose.
285
827000
2000
kroz biljke.
14:04
So I started in the center
286
829000
2000
Počela sam iz centra
14:06
with the acorn
287
831000
2000
žirom
14:08
for the Ohlone Indian civilization.
288
833000
4000
posvećenom indijanskoj civilzaciji Ohlone.
14:12
Then I have the fruit from Europe
289
837000
2000
Zatim imam voće iz Evrope
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 onda voće sveta za današnju Silicijumsku dolinu.
14:19
And it's still growing.
292
844000
2000
A rast ne prestaje.
14:21
So the technique, it's cut,
293
846000
3000
Tehnika je rezanje,
14:24
sandblasted, etched
294
849000
2000
peskarenje, graviranje,
14:26
and printed glass into architectural glass.
295
851000
4000
i utiskivanje stakla u arhitektonsko staklo.
14:30
And outside the library,
296
855000
2000
A ispred biblioteke
14:32
I wanted to make a place to cultivate your mind.
297
857000
4000
htela sam da napravim mesto gde biste uzgajali svoj um.
14:36
I took library material
298
861000
3000
Uzela sam iz biblioteke materijal
14:39
that had fruit in their title
299
864000
3000
sa voćem u naslovu
14:42
and I used them to make an orchard walk
300
867000
3000
i napravila od toga voćnjak
14:45
with these fruits of knowledge.
301
870000
2000
čiji su plodovi znanje.
14:47
I also planted the bibliotree.
302
872000
3000
Osim toga, posadila sam i 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
koje u stablu ima korene jezika.
14:55
And it's all about international writing systems.
305
880000
4000
Radi se o internacionalnim načinima pisanja.
14:59
And on the branches
306
884000
2000
A na granama
15:01
you have library material growing.
307
886000
3000
rastu knjige.
15:05
You can also have function and form
308
890000
3000
Kada stvarate javnu umetnost
15:08
with public art.
309
893000
2000
dobijete i primenu i formu.
15:10
So in Aurora, Colorado it's a bench.
310
895000
2000
U Aurori, u Koloradu, napravila sam klupu.
15:12
But you have a bonus with this bench.
311
897000
3000
Ali, uz ovu klupu, dobija se i bonus.
15:15
Because if you sit a long time in summer in shorts,
312
900000
3000
Tako što, ako dugo sedite leti u šorcu,
15:18
you will walk away
313
903000
2000
otići ćete
15:20
with temporary branding of
314
905000
3000
sa privremenim otiskom
15:23
the story element on your thighs.
315
908000
2000
jednog dela priče na butinama.
15:25
(Laughter)
316
910000
3000
(Smeh)
15:30
Another functional work,
317
915000
2000
Još jedno delo sa primenom
15:32
it's in the south side of Chicago
318
917000
2000
je na južnoj strani Čikaga,
15:34
for a subway station.
319
919000
2000
za metro stanicu.
15:36
And it's called "Seeds of the Future are Planted Today."
320
921000
4000
Zove se "Seme budućnosti seje se danas".
15:40
It's a story about transformation
321
925000
3000
To je priča o transformaciji
15:43
and connections.
322
928000
2000
i povezanosti.
15:45
So it acts as a screen
323
930000
2000
Služi kao paravan
15:47
to protect the rail and the commuter,
324
932000
3000
koji štiti i šine i putnike,
15:50
and not to have objects falling on the rails.
325
935000
3000
tako da ništa ne može pasti na šine.
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 rešetke na prozorima u cveće,
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
Protekle tri godine radim
16:04
with a South Bronx developer
330
949000
2000
sa graditeljem iz južnog Bronksa
16:06
to bring art to life
331
951000
2000
na oživljavanju
16:08
to low-income buildings
332
953000
2000
socijalno neprofitnih
16:10
and affordable housing.
333
955000
3000
i povoljnih stanova.
16:13
So each building has its own personality.
334
958000
3000
Svaka zgrada ima svoju osobenost.
16:16
And sometimes it's about a legacy of the neighborhood,
335
961000
4000
Ponekad se radi o nasleđu tog kraja,
16:20
like in Morrisania, about the jazz history.
336
965000
4000
kao što je u Morisanji istorija džeza.
16:24
And for other projects, like in Paris,
337
969000
3000
Za druge projekte, kao u Parizu,
16:27
it's about the name of the street.
338
972000
2000
radi se o imenu ulice.
16:29
It's called Rue des Prairies -- Prairie Street.
339
974000
3000
Ova se zove 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
vilinog konjica,
16:36
to stay in that street.
342
981000
2000
da ostanu u ovoj ulici.
16:38
And in 2009,
343
983000
2000
A u 2009. godini,
16:40
I was asked to make a poster
344
985000
3000
pitali su me da napravim poster
16:43
to be placed in the subway cars in New York City
345
988000
3000
koji će biti postavljen u vagonima njujorškog metroa
16:46
for a year.
346
991000
2000
tokom godinu dana.
16:48
So that was a very captive audience.
347
993000
4000
Ovde imamo jednu zatočenu publiku.
16:52
And I wanted to give them an escape.
348
997000
4000
I ja sam želela da joj omogućim beg.
16:56
I created "All Around Town."
349
1001000
3000
Napravila sam "Po čitavom gradu".
16:59
It is a papercutting,
350
1004000
2000
To je izrezak papira,
17:01
and then after, I added color on the computer.
351
1006000
3000
a kasnije sam mu dodala boju na kompjuteru.
17:04
So I can call it techno-crafted.
352
1009000
3000
Tako da mogu reći da je i tehnički obrađen.
17:07
And along the way,
353
1012000
2000
U međuvremenu,
17:09
I'm kind of making papercuttings
354
1014000
3000
izrezujem papir
17:12
and adding other techniques.
355
1017000
2000
dodajući druge tehnike.
17:14
But the result is always to have stories.
356
1019000
3000
Ali cilj je uvek da se ispriča priča.
17:17
So the stories, they have a lot of possibilities.
357
1022000
3000
Priče pružaju mnogo mogućnosti.
17:20
They have a lot of scenarios.
358
1025000
2000
Imaju mnogo scenarija.
17:22
I don't know the stories.
359
1027000
2000
Ja ne znam priče.
17:24
I take images from our global imagination,
360
1029000
4000
Ja uzimam scene iz globalne mašte,
17:28
from cliché, from things we are thinking about,
361
1033000
2000
iz klišea, iz stvari o kojima razgovaramo,
17:30
from history.
362
1035000
2000
iz istorije.
17:32
And everybody's a narrator,
363
1037000
2000
Svako je pripovedač,
17:34
because everybody has a story to tell.
364
1039000
3000
jer svako ima svoju priču.
17:37
But more important
365
1042000
2000
Ali najvažnije je
17:39
is everybody has to make a story
366
1044000
2000
da svako treba da stvori priču,
17:41
to make sense of the world.
367
1046000
2000
da bi svet imao smisla.
17:43
And in all these universes,
368
1048000
2000
I u svim ovim svetovima,
17:45
it's like imagination is the vehicle
369
1050000
3000
mašta je
17:48
to be transported with,
370
1053000
2000
prevozno sredstvo,
17:50
but the destination is our minds
371
1055000
3000
ali cilj su naši umovi
17:53
and how we can reconnect
372
1058000
2000
i cilj je ponovo se povezati
17:55
with the essential and with the magic.
373
1060000
2000
sa suštinom i sa magijom.
17:57
And it's what story cutting is all about.
374
1062000
3000
I to je upravo smisao izrezivanja priča.
18:01
(Applause)
