展覽論述
靈魂的概念常出現在各文化信仰中,被現代化理性思維為基的科學驗證所屏除,而在理性認知的話外之地成為一方看似迷信卻又吸引人的世界景象。 本次的裝置創作即是縈繞在此大框架之下,企圖以雕塑裝置的形式探討靈魂旅程的概念,以「靈魂」的面向來探討人的存在,而非以我們熟知的「肉身存在」做為討論架構,這次作品將靈魂旅程就四個時間切片來描繪人在每一個歷程中的遭遇:創造起源、肉身於世、中陰無明、回歸源頭,四件作品的展示不僅只是讓作品各自表述,且讓作品彼此關聯,得以接連成為一場完整的情境敘事,現場充滿著濃厚的「劇場」和「儀式」的氛圍。 在這系列的作品中,藝術家希望能透過內在沉思補捉到一絲不可見世界的風景,豐富我們對於靈魂的思考面向,進而拓展身而為人的意識版圖。 展覽的第二部分為跨界合作的衍生創作,透過舞者與音樂家的再次詮釋,將本議題向外推演。自由觀看的動線與類劇場的表達設計串聯成一場個人的旅程,觀眾身歷其中而被激發、擾動的內心戲碼也是敘事劇場欲亦引發的後勁。 |
Artist Statement
Despite disregard in the field of modern science, the notion of the soul often manifests in various cultural beliefs and has become an unfounded but riveting world phenomenon. This installation hovers under this framework, in an attempt to explore the journey of the soul through sculptural installation, examining the existence of man in consideration of the “soul,” rather than a presumed “bodily existence.” The work portrays the course of our journey in four segments: the origin of life, living in the flesh, bardo (also know as the intermediate state), and returning to the origin. The arrangement of these four works allows each piece to speak on its own, but also connects them with each other, to become a complete narrative, with the site embodying an atmosphere of “theater” and “ritual.” In this series of work, the artist strives to capture a fragment of an imperceptible landscape through contemplation, enriching our beliefs of the soul, and expanding the parameters of our consciousness as human beings. The second section of the exhibition includes multidisciplinary collaboration, developed through the reinterpretation of dancers and musicians. The open floor plan and expression of theater-esque design casts the audience on a personal journey, a descriptive theater that manages to animate and unsettle their minds. |
