《七姓稠》
Seven Surnames Rice/Congee


Overnight rices from seven people, bad luck(bird poop), friendships

2018年8月8日晚上乃1a Space展覧開幕日,我和工作伙伴晚飯後就踱步至洋葵耬巴士站。我們經過一棵大樹,霎時感覺頭上有一些濕潤的東西,原來是雀屎。三人同行,卻只有我被擊中,我在想這會不會上天送上的提示,從小得悉中雀屎就是中大獎,不是中大獎就必定成有錢人。然而,當我瀏覽互聯網,卻出現載現不同的解釋,化解方法是向7戶不同姓氏人家要點稀飯加在一塊喝下,俗稱"七姓稠"。我馬上聯絡朋友們,成功翌日找上七位不同姓氏的朋友討點飯。

On the evening of August 8, 2018, the opening party of the 1a Space exhibition, my working partners and I went to the bus station at the Kwai Kui building after dinner. When we passed a big tree, I felt that there was something moist on my head. It was bird poop. Three people walked in a line but only I was hit. I was wondering if this would be a reminder to the God. I learned from a young age that the gar reflects the big prize, or good luck. However, when I browsed the Internet, there are different interpretation from Feng Shui. The solution is to add to the congee of 7 people who have different surnames, commonly known as "seven surnames congee." I immediately contacted my friends and succeeded in finding friends of seven different surnames to get some congee/rice.
