人類發明機械,漸漸以機械取代視覺,凌駕感官,甚至左右表達與思想。作品以針孔攝影作實踐,試圖消取身體與攝影機械之間的邊界,把兩者合而為一。

 

影像連結了呼吸的律動。微小的一呼一吸卻支撐我們身體的一切,亦是存在的證明。晃動的影像呈現相機背後的呼吸與凝視,空景亦是社群於社區互動的總和。

 

是個體構成社群,還是社群容納個體?是次作品希望借拾來的木瓜盒,借原始的光學探知自身的存在、觀察社區空間與社群的互動。

 

Humans have invented machines, gradually replacing vision with machines, overriding the senses, and even controlling expression and thought. The work uses pinhole photography as a practice, trying to eliminate the boundary between the body and the photographic machine, and integrate the two into one.

 

The images link the rhythm of breathing. A tiny breath supports our body, and also as a proof of existence. Shaking images show the breathing and gaze behind the camera, and the aerial view is also the sum of people’s interactions in the community.

 

Do the individuals form the community, or does the community contain the individuals? This work hopes to use the papaya box picked up and the original optics to explore its own existence, and observe the interaction between the community and space.
