作為一個以身體行為作為創作思索脈絡的創作者,我要對眼前這幅景象做些什麼?能做什麼?
我想觸摸他
當時,凝視著大海,這個即時的反射回應,成為這件作品的靈感來源。究竟是海浪迎來、凸起的那個螢幕點迎來,抑或是我欲迎向海?這個觸摸,毋寧說是一種觸視(Haptical visuality)的動作,是一種未被身體實踐的真實動作,他必不能以現實世界的身體與海肉體碰觸。
於是,我以萊卡布製作了一幅螢幕,投以海浪拍打湧至的影像;並在螢幕後方架設了一條軌道,上有一支機械滑輪從後方向前將螢幕撐凸,且水平地左右來回移動,此裝置的位置、移動速度是象徵以一種手指在腰間左右輕緩水平劃過的高度,他被賦予暗示動作主體情緒的任務。
像是從腦海中將觸摸的思考動態影像切片擷出、獨立展示,那個在海浪上移動的凸起點迎向觀者,在浪起浪落之間以幾不可察覺的方式展現其姿態。
As an artist whose concerned with body action, what will I do if I take the scenery in front of me as a subject of my artwork?
I want to touch it.
I remembered that when I stared at the sea, an instant and nearly impulsive thought came up. I wondered whether the incoming sea waves approached me (like convex point of the video screen) or I desired to get closer to the sea. If I touch the sea waves, the touch can be regarded either as a haptical visuality or as a unrealized action; and, thus, the touch can never be a physical one. The imagination became my inspiration of this piece of artwork.
Therefore, I made a large screen out of Lycra fabric and projected a video image of sea waves onto it. Behind the screen, I built a track along with a mechanical device on the track, which also supports the screen and makes a convex point when the device moved back and forth horizontally from left side to the right side. Both of the position and the moving pace of this device symbolized a gentle touch on the sea horizon with a suggestion of the subject’s emotion.
The convex point on the screen that constantly approached viewers showed its own stance in an imperceptible way. The movement seems like to slice my brain and put my thinking mode on display.
