How to disappear completely?

How to disappear completely?

(It is in our exhibition "想您的美,You're so Considerate! ", as 9 of us
were choosing an international artist who is well-fit to each other,
hoping that the others would penetrate into some works of the artist,
and use the artists' works as reference to create this time.)


I imitate the format of Jenny Holzer's work, "Inflammatory Essays".

Her words are always socio-political,
but I found some of her words could become something
quite personal as well if we add some more imaginations.
And I'm more interested in something between
social and personal matters. So i made these words
which I feel like they are in between.

I "deformed" the words to an abnormal order, but some of
them sound more or less the same with the original spellings.
As I always feel it is too heavy about some very concrete words,
which are directly telling some sorts of socio-political things.

and you can see the words)
