Used Objects

Glass and video – these two materials, which seem different on the pole but have a paradoxical link – Motion.

Glass - An ancient material.

It has all the paradoxical nature:

It can be very hot and very cold, fragile and strong.

It can be liquid but freeze in a very short moment.

It's solid but particles are always flowing.

 

Video - A modern media which is often used by artist to express art today.

It transforms a motion to 2-D moving image. 

When an image in a monitor, the monitor becomes a 3-D sculpture.

 

Each material and each media have its own nature.

I place a seed and let it grows.

Nature will make her own LIFE.

 

“Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed.” ~ Antoine Lavoisier

 

 

已用之物

「大自然之物,從不失去,亦無創造,一切只在循環演化中。」- Lavoisier

我喜歡流動易變的狀態。

 

玻璃及錄像,兩種迴異的物質及媒介,卻有一個共通點,就是流動易變。

玻璃,一種從古至今,一直用作日常器皿及裝飾品的物質,有著最矛盾的性格:亦冷亦可棷熱,既脆弱又堅強,時而液態時而固態,每一件玻璃作品都蘊藏著靜待釋放的能量。

 

錄像,當代藝術家常用的媒介。它把三元的時間空間動作,記錄成二元的活動影像,再把這影像放在電視螢幕上,電視加藝術影像又變成一個立體雕塑。

 

每種物質及媒介都有它們自身的特性,每件創作,我只給予它一個發展的條件,其結果則全然是它自身及大自然去決定了。

 

這亦是我對藝術及生命的看法。
