这部短片通过高清慢镜头仔细记录和分解了一只金雕飞行动作的每个细节。与大自然正被人工的高科技所征服的常规观念相反,这件作品呈现了主宰天空的雄鹰击落代表当代科技的无人飞行器的过程,这与荷兰警察对鹰进行的无人机反侦察的真实训练相符。作品在唤起人们对于领土、监控和入侵的思考的同时,其题目——源自古罗马时期的拉丁语谚语“雄鹰不为捕苍蝇费力”(与“不用大炮轰蚊子”意思相近)更增添了一丝反讽的意味。
In this film, the flight of a golden eagle is carefully recorded with high-definition slow-motion cameras and deconstructed in a sequence where every detail is captured. Contrary to the notion of nature being conquered by high artificial technology, the video presents the attack on a drone (an icon of contemporary technology) by an eagle (the king of the skies), which corresponds to a real training of eagles by the Dutch police to fight against malicious drones. While evoking ideas on territory, surveillance, and intrusion, the artist also adds a touch of ironic favour by entitling the piece with a famous Latin proverb originating from the time of the Roman Empire - "Aquila Non Capit Muscas", which means "big shots don't sweat the small stuff".

语音导览即将上线,敬请期待。
我们邀请小朋友作为电子导览的讲解员,捕捉他们看展的第一刻反应,他们的心情、问题都会被录制成为音频。我们尝试把解读的语言回归到最简朴的状态,以稚嫩的语言、好奇心拉平观众与作品的视线,重组展签及语音导览的传统模式。
