magpie Prophecy No.4 鵲讖 4

In Magpie Prophecy No.4, a metal fence cuts across the composition, dividing the natural landscape into inside and outside. Behind the fence, vegetation and birds remain in place, with one bird lifting into flight. In the foreground, a magpie lies lifeless on the ground, its feathers scattered. The space is clearly partitioned, yet no specific action or conflict is shown. What appears is an already established condition: life and death, inclusion and exclusion, passage and restriction coexist within the same frame. Here, “prophecy” does not warn of what is to come, but reveals an outcome that has already taken shape.

《鹊谶 4》中，一道金属围栏横亘画面，将自然景观分隔为内外两侧。围栏后方，草木、禽鸟仍在其位，画面上方有鸟振翅而起；围栏前方，一只喜鹊伏地而亡，羽毛散落。空间被清晰划分，却并未指向明确的冲突或行为。画面呈现的是一种已然成立的状态：生与死、内与外、可越与不可越，在同一画面中并置存在。“谶”并非警示未来，而是在静止之中显露结果本身。
