在其专著《失落之业》中，艺术家塔林·西蒙详尽记录了她历时数年对职业哭丧人的研究，这项探索最终成就了2016年在纽约公园大道军械库具有里程碑意义的演出。在这场装置艺术中，来自世界各地的职业哭丧人于巨型雕塑场景内同时吟诵挽歌，演绎哀悼的仪式。该装置融合行为艺术、声音与建筑空间，共同探讨悲恸的肌理，以及人类用于应对命运与无常的精密体系。

本书引领读者深入了解受邀哭丧人申请赴美签证的复杂流程，揭示制约全球交流、人体流动及艺术文化等级制度的深层结构。

 

In her monograph, An Occupation of Loss, artist Taryn Simon creates a detailed record of her years researching professional mourning, which culminated in a seminal performance at the Park Avenue Armory in 2016. During the installation, professional mourners from around the world simultaneously broadcast their lamentations within a monumental sculptural setting, enacting rituals of grief. The installation combined performance, sound, and architecture to consider the anatomy of grief and the intricate systems we use to manage fate and uncertainty.

The book leads the reader through the complicated visa application process for the mourners invited to enter the United States, revealing the underlying structures governing global exchange, the movement of bodies, and the hierarchies of art and culture.
