This
is a collection of poems that I co-designed and wrote with Weikai Cheng called
"Shitty Poems Collection". We mocked the College Entrance Exam of
Taiwan and uses test papers, answer sheets as well as other exam materials to
make this book. We also invited our friend, illustrator River Chang to do vivid
and funny illustrations for the postcards.
We try to use lovely and colorful colors to sarcastically reveal our criticism and dissatisfaction with our College Entrance System.
Criticizing the over-deconstruction, disassembly of poems, and overfocusing of some complicated and trivial details in the exam.
Aside
from ordinary poem collections that only contain words, we try to transform the
poetry into visual works.
So that the whole collection of poetry is rich in
pictures and texts, and uses different paper materials and colors to present
different feelings.
