南方雪 Southern Snow
2024 於理善藝聚空間
這次展覽的起點源於我對自然雪景的觀察,這些景象激發了我的創作想法。從台灣到北京的轉移,讓我首次體驗到下雪的環境,這成為我重新思考雕塑材料運用的契機。我喜歡探索雕塑材料在使用過程中的不同特性,比如石膏粉加水化學反應後從粉狀轉化成液體,再凝結固體;或是鋼鐵在高溫下熔化時,它比水更具流動性。這些經驗觸動我聯想到自然景象的變化,尤其是大雪覆蓋下的景象使得原本的形狀變得模糊不清,充滿想像力。因此,我開始嘗試使用雕塑材料去創造這樣的景象,以有機的方式回應自然。通過自然的方式包覆乾枯的植物,讓它們在流動的材料中呈現出新的形狀,這讓我感覺自己像是大自然的一部分,觀察著材料的變化,並根據這些變化產生新的創作想法。
The starting point of this exhibition originates from my observation of natural snowy landscapes, which have inspired my creative process. Moving from Taiwan to Beijing allowed me to experience snowfall for the first time, becoming a catalyst for rethinking the use of sculptural materials.
I enjoy exploring the unique properties of materials during the creative process—for example, how plaster powder undergoes a chemical reaction with water, transforming from powder to liquid before solidifying, or how molten metal, when exposed to high temperatures, becomes even more fluid than water. These experiences remind me of transformations in nature, particularly how heavy snowfall obscures and softens existing forms, imbuing them with a sense of imagination.
As a result, I began experimenting with sculptural materials to recreate these phenomena, responding to nature in an organic way. By naturally enveloping withered plants with flowing materials, they take on new forms, making me feel as if I am part of nature itself—observing the transformations of materials and generating new creative ideas in response to these changes.
