關於展覽 About The Exhibition/
2015年香港,急攘攘蠅爭血。在這紛亂的小世界中,孑然寄居著一群被主流香港忽視的神
祕客,試圖以樸素又不平凡的方式,建立屬於自己的蜜與奶之地。
《天堂一般》個展為長期計劃《星塵之作:世界中心的異外想像》的首次階段性發表,此
計劃以香港為研究基地,少數或弱勢流散族裔為關注起點,利用田野踏查、參與式創作等
極為凌亂卻真摯的方法,累積許多來自世界各地之「他者」朋友們對於自己過去、當下、
未來的想像;看似毫不相關的個體、經驗、想像,也因此串聯起來。
參與式創作是串聯的方法媒介,也是《天堂一般》展出作品的生產原件。試想一互動畫畫
遊戲:藝術家、互不相識的「他者」朋友們個別口頭描述心中所想之事物,爾後交互觀賞
描述過程的錄影片段,畫出別人所想的東西;遊戲中所搜集到的圖畫、影像記錄,交錯集
結成影像、裝置作品呈現,承載了屬於所有參與者的可塑故事與空間想像。
「我們的組成都來自爆炸後的星星,由星塵殞落的簡單元素,經過複雜的結構重組,成為
獨特又相互聯結的個體,散落在世界各處,親近卻不可預知。如此根本的物質想像,可延
伸出豐富的經驗想像,以及其再次延伸出的空間地域想像,將許多似乎毫無關聯的『人』
、『地』、『想像』串聯在一起。」—《星塵之作:世界中心的異外想象》
2015, Hong Kong, a relentlessly hustled little world in forever motion.
Underneath its spectacular city façade, a group of discreet individuals
resides, long overlooked by the mainstream society. Humbly and with immense
determination, they strive to construct their own promised land of milk and
honey.
Like Paradise is the first formal showcase of Pei-Hsuan Wang’s long-term
project Made of Star-Stuff: Imagining Outsides at the Center of the World.
Based in Hong Kong and investigating the condition of minority groups in
Diaspora within the city, the project set out collecting “the Other stories”
through fieldwork and participatory art practices. These imaginations from
all over the world connect seemingly disparate and unrelated individuals,
creating a collective narrative bridging spaces, time, and experiences.
Participatory art practices acts as a medium to connect, and is also the raw
ingredient to the works presented in Like Paradise. It takes form as a
drawing game: individually, the artist and “the Other participants”
describe a Thing from their past without disclosing what it is; the process
is filmed, and upon viewing the filmed descriptions, the participants would
draw each other’s Thing. The resulted drawings and filmed footages are then
transformed into video and installation pieces, carrying the ever-evolving
stories and imaginations of all participants.
"We are all made of stars that exploded. The simple specs of celestial dust
came together through complex processes to form individuals that are so
diverse yet connected at the same time. The atoms in my right hand may come
from a different star than my left hand, but my left hand and the right hand
of some unknown person half way across the planet may share the one dust that
came from the same star. This imagination of matters and materials could
inspire the imagination of individual experiences, furthermore generating the
ever-evolving imagination for space and geography. The ties between countless
seemingly unrelated peoples, places, and imaginations can thus be
established." —Made of Star-Stuff: Imagining Outsides at the Center of the
World
