TELLING STORIES
​
​說故事

說故事 / Telling Stories​ 
個展 / Solo Exhibition    2012

打開陳封的時間盒子,跑回久遠的年代,那是一場關於記憶的旅行。

在旅程當中,回到紅與白的年代,我巧遇二維瑪里奧,穿梭於陸地和下水道間,在8x4次的冒險當中,破關斬將的拯救公主;阿童木,是博士依據死去孩子製作的機械人,一個替代別人的複製品,在註定的悲劇命運中,他努力尋求接納,帶著那沉重的鋼鐵身驅以温暖的心拯救地球…

在每個獨立的故事背後,在經典角色面前,都隱含著深刻的使命和理念。這些理念是誇文化﹑誇國度的,它深嵌於大眾共同回憶當中,親切易懂,那是一種思想上無障礙的溝通。在我描繪我的故事當下,我化作第一身,做了現實和虛擬交錯的逆旅 ,我嘗試貼近這些擁抱著人類共同理想的英雄,做一次又一次有趣的互動,同時於我也是一次又一次的檢討。故事的靈感源於生活,所以它同時亦是對生命的寫照;在每個故事面前,我發現人生猶如一場遊戲﹑一場冒險,是不幸和幸運互相交疊的過程。主角們,正是那包裹著信念的外殼,他們告訴了我,「克服」永遠是生命的一個命題。

我,誠懇帶著我自身的體驗,借助經典角色為我在時間和空間中烙下鮮明的註解,在新新舊舊的碰撞當中,表達我對生命的觀察和想法。人生再複雜,把其中的沙石濾去也不過是一個時間的進程,在檢瀝的過程中,我細味點滴。人生,創作,是遊戲?是體驗!



Opening the time box and going back to the distant past, it was a journey on memory.

During the journey, I go back to the era of red and white, where I meet with 2D Mario, who travels above and below the ground and for 8x4 times, he takes the risk to rescue the princess. AstroBoy(アトム), is a robot made by a doctor according to his dead son, a copy of someone else for replacement. In his tragic destiny, he makes efforts to be accepted by others, and saves the planet with his heavy steel body but a warm heart ...

Behind each individual story, in front of each classic role, there is also a profound mission and philosophy implied. The ideas are cross-cultural and transnational, which are deeply embedded in common memories of the public, friendly and easy to understand . There is no barriers to the communications. When I elaborate on my stories, I turn into the first person, make the journey between the reality and the virtual world, and try to approach the public heroes, who embrace the common dream of human beings. I do the interaction time and time again, while I review myself time and time again. The idea of each story comes from the real life, which is also a portrait of life; in front of each story, I find life just like a game of adventure, a cycle of unfortunates and fortunes . Protagonists, which are the shells wrapping the faith, tell me that overcoming is always a proposition to life.

Sincerely with my own experience, using the classic characters as striking footnotes in my space and time, and in the process of collision between the new and the old, I express my observations and thoughts towards life. Even life is intricate, filtering out the sand and stones is just a process of time. During the process, I carefully taste bits of life. Life, creation, are games? They are experiences!
