ABOUT

臺南是一座人文薈萃的古城,更是擁有獨特的自然環境:潟湖、濕地、海埔新生地與沙洲等,這些特有的景觀如同大地的培養皿,是生態的搖籃,一個獨有的生態多樣的孵育場所,匯聚了源源不絕的生命力,就如同臺南新藝獎對藝術新銳的孕育與培養。

策展人胡朝聖提出「無際棲域」作為策展命題,旨在將臺南獨特的自然景觀與新藝獎對藝術的呼應結合,以大自然的形成為象徵探討生命的誕生、成長,以及藝術的發展與轉變,從個人生命經驗到對日常生活的觀察展開思考,融入當代多元的美學概念。

這是一場觸及多面向的藝術探索,藉由這個展覽,藝術家們能夠從無垠、多元的創作宇宙中,尋找藝術與當今社會的脈絡及多種可能性。

Hsu Szu-Ying

HSU Szu-Ying 's works of arts seek to challenge the limits of the viewer and the definition of art. For example, bringing a white rhino from the prestigious Victoria & Albert museum to the busy Bank Street area in London.
Or a thin porcelain armor that can only be seen on the opening night of the exhibition. Another time just a damaged armor displayed in a museum showcase in violation of the convention. It can appear like a spectacular jet, but inside the layers of packages is empty. Hsu reveals her hopes, humiliations, failures and successes in candid, at times, excoriating work that is frequently both tragic and humorous. Seeking to challenge and redefine the positioning and value of artworks in the contemporary art ecology and the hearts of viewers.

Chien Yi-Wen
Engaged in design work, occasionally working with ceramics.
Creativity stems from personal emotional exploration, interested in something that can be keenly felt but are difficult to articulate in words, and endeavors to record these processes or states. Uses abstract objects or visual graphics for expression, attempting to depict the patterns of inner feeling in physical space through textures, grains, images, and other means, providing insights into the interconnectedness between emotion, space, and material through artworks.
