Artist Statement | 藝術家自述
My work present layers of contradiction and vulnerability from my life experiences. I create a space which seems like my body with a boundary between inside and outside. It attracts attention and invites the viewers to get close, walk through, be surrounded and have a dialogue, and it simultaneously provides an imaginary space for me only. My work also expresses a kind of pain under the appearance of beauty.
My approach explores my ambivalence and anxiety on the basis of the cell, female body, beauty, culture and identity. The concepts in my work are supported by my use of various materials. I collect found objects and transform them into new forms that contain special metaphors or meanings. For example, I transform the twisted, wrinkled, and screaming expression of the facial mask into a metaphor for my potential fear and struggle. The stiffened material expresses a kind of pain and anxiety under the appearance of beauty. By bringing sculpture, photography, and performance into my work, I transform my consciousness into a visible self-examination.
我的作品分成「潛在因子」、「陰性書寫」和「遠離家園」三大系列,主要以身體細胞組織為形式架構出發,從個人的生活經驗中去探討女性意識和文化認同及差異等議題,抒發自我的矛盾、脆弱和焦慮感。透過複合媒材的組合或裝置的形式呈現,與空間結合,有時作品本身構成一獨立的空間或是內與外之間的界限,觀眾可以靠近並且走入我的作品中,做更貼近的對話。
我喜愛利用生活中的現成物為媒材,將每一物件賦予特殊的象徵意義。例如: 一張張扭曲、變形的面膜,看似蕾絲般的柔軟質感卻是一張張硬化後恐懼與掙扎的表情,隱喻美麗的外表之下潛藏著個人的焦慮與矛盾。
結合雕塑、行為表演的過程和攝影的記錄方式,同時也呈現了一種對自我意識的檢視
