   扒手 Pickpocket 

   Dimension variable​

   Black iron, Oil pastel, wax

   2020

Inspired by Robert Bresson's film with the same title, MAN Mei To explores in "Pickpocket" the theme of loss and gain. The sculpture replicates the arms of a pocket-picker, in which they have been merged and sprouted from the same base. Its form depicts the hand movement during the act of stealing – the action of pulling out and inserting the hand with the stolen goods back into the pocket.

《扒手》顧名思義,啟發自布烈遜的《扒手》,底座承托著一雙兩頭生長的手臂,複製扒手的手腕尋索間與得手後的對比,在得失之間覓取平衡。
