開幕茶會 Opening:2014.02.15 Sat. 3:00pm


嶄新的初春,四季交替循環著,觸發人類感官與心靈的微妙變化;人與大地生生不息地共生與相互倚賴,藝術家透過地景變化的反映,生活環境中微妙的五官感受,以創作喚醒人類社會與自然間關係急遽變化的意識。

邀請您一同凝視心靈與自然的美景,透過藝術家的觀察,爲生活環境多一份關注與珍惜,我們能夠想像未來美好的地球,仍然充滿生命力與絢麗繽紛。

蔡坤霖將藝術品視爲一種媒介物,邀請觀眾透過身體的感官運作,接觸作品中產生新的感覺經驗,進而喚回一些已經遺忘的感受。作品《山屋》具象體現出人類的智慧由天地自然所孕育的抽象概念,智慧皆來自萬物天地的誘發與感知的轉換。

蔡潔莘擅長運用具有溫度、觸感及環保意識的再生紙漿作為創作媒材,建構立體雕塑,以渾厚的弧度曲線呈現飽滿溫潤的情感基里,回歸生命中最原始的單純美好。

高雅婷往往在畫作裡融入人和自然的關係,看似風景,但意不在描繪景色,而是藉著寫景牽引人心。在作品《水泥廠》中,繽紛華麗的山頭橫亙一列人造建築,對比強烈卻相互融合依存,未來人類的發展將如何演變,開啓了我們的無限想象。

洪韵婷以一貫的主題「想像」為主軸,試圖透過想像的營造引導觀者利用個人主觀的生活經驗構築屬於個人色彩的內心世界。

周代焌擅長突顯現代人的視野透過「螢幕界面」而無限延展卻相對封閉與偏頗的現象,創作主題主要探討以真實的景點為背景,如何透過想像搭建起一個建構中的世界。

五位藝術家以各自獨特的語彙闡述自然與心靈的憩所,共築未來理想的境界。

減肥瘦身操LOSE WEIGHT EXERCISE
2011, Video 7’ 32”
洪韵婷+鄒逸真 Yun-Ting HUNG + I-Chen TSOU (TW)

減肥瘦身操是一個表演計畫:HUNGER在字義上,除了飢餓,還有擁有某種事物的渴望。此時,不論男女,對於身體的"完美塑型",都有了更嚴苛,更多元化的標準,甚至達到 "渴望飢餓 - hunger for hunger" 的病態念頭。因此在這一系列的表演行為裡,企圖透過一場類似減肥瘦身操的詼諧動作,嘲諷這個怪異現象。透過這些既熟悉又荒誕的塑身行為,如此充斥著詭異又病態的氛圍,試想提問,hunger已經變成了什麼?

Lose Weight Exercise is a performance project. The description of hunger in both physiology and psychology can be understood singularly as a “strong desire.” Nowadays both men and women have a new standard for the perfect physical shape, which is more stringent than it has ever been. At some point, people may even become mired down in a morbid cycle of yearning - or “hungering”- after hunger. They intend to mock this bizarre social phenomenon through her performance series Lose Weight Exercise. Through this familiar yet ridiculous behavior, presented in such a strange and morbid atmosphere, the artist attempts to question what hunger has become.



反作用力 COUNTERFORCE
2010, Video Documentation 1' 22"
黎正恬 Jennis Cheng-Tien LI (SG)

Schreber先生和Schreber公園是此研究計劃的主題。Schreber先生發明的設備讓人聯想到現代的健身器材,以及他以自己的小孩作實驗,來支持他一個孩子過多的精力需要被釋放的理論。此藝術作品結合了學術上的研究和個人的情感,並以一個雕塑的形式呈現。然而此設備的原本單純的功能性被轉化成荒謬語彙。

The project is a consequence of my research on the founding of the "Schrebergarten" and Mr Schreber who devised apparatuses reminiscent of contemporary gym equipment and experimented on his children to support his theory on children's excessive energy and its need to be released. The final artwork is a synthesis of intellectual research and personal emotion. It boils down to the form of a sculpture. The mere functionalities of the original equipment have been translated into absurdity.



羽球舞 DANCING IN BADMINTON
2012, Video Documentation 10’ 13”
吳建瑩 Chien-Ying WU (TW)

開始於一個觀念,過程是工作坊,最後完成於一齣舞蹈表演。Dancing in Badminton 跨越與自在的形式,是將孩子們帶進藝術實踐領域的工具。亦即,吳建瑩無意深研造形語彙,而僅是抓住該藝術形式最簡單的構成元素,並將藝術的入門門檻拉低至日常實踐的範圍。然而,這並非回應由上而下的技術普及化,卻是由低探高的藝術參與,用意在不同領域裡引進新的能量…

Starting from a concept, this artwork, of which the process is conducted by workshops, is finished by a dance show at the end. The liberal and transdisciplinary form of Dancing in Badminton is a tool to bring children into the domain of practice of arts. That is, the artist has no intention to study the language of plastic arts, but to grab the simplest component of art form and to lower the entry barrier of art to the domain of practice of everyday life. However, it doesn’t respond to the dominant tendency in the primacy of art skills and techniques, but to the public initiative in participation of art, with intention to bring in new energies from different domains.
