身邊日常可見的事物是我創作的主要元素,書櫃上不規則排例的書、鞋架上大小不同的鞋盒、衣服上不同的紋理及房間內的牆紙等,都是吸引及啟發我的事物。拿牆紙為例,這牆紙由2000年的時候已經存在,與我渡過了將近二十年的時間,但直至2017年的一天,我才不經意地發現排列在牆紙上的條紋排列是規則的,而牆紙上的條紋便成為了「捱過枯燥乏味的重複,才能變得耀眼」。自此,我開始多留意身邊的事物,然後將它們轉化成抽象的圖形,繼而創作了「把牢房裏面 變成牢房外面」及「不過是 宇宙間的一點塵埃」。作品除了表現了我日常看到的事物外,亦帶著我對世界的一些看法和領悟。

Preface

 

My works were mainly inspired by things that used to exist quietly in my daily life, like the books that were randomly put on the bookshelf, shoeboxes of different sizes in the shoe racks, patterns on clothes and wall-papers, etc. Take the wall-paper as example, we met in 2000 when my family moved into this flat; but it was not until recently, after 20 years, did I realised that it is in regular stripe pattern which inspired my work “One and the Same”. Since then, I started to pay more attention to things around me, and whenever possible, transform them into some abstract graphics, such as the works “When Two Different Worlds Collide” and “Just a Dust in the Universe”. Apart from the illustration of my vision, my works also served as the manifests of my insights and world-view.

其實我們身邊很多事情或事物都在重複,衣服上的圖案、家裏的牆紙、每天發生的事⋯⋯不過那些重複總帶著有趣的地方,只是我們沒有留意而已。

There are many things around us are repeating, such as patterns on our clothes and on wall-paper at home, or our daily routines… and there ought to be some interesting elements in the repetition itself, but most of us can’t see it.

捱過枯燥乏味的重複,

才能變得耀眼

One and the same

若然只從一個角度看這個世界,只會把自己逼瘋。因此,如果疼痛能使我感到存在,那崩潰便是我生存下去的理由。

If we see this world in only one way, it will just make you crazy. So, collapse will be the reason for me to stay alive, if pain makes me feel my existence.

我們現在身處的只是一個微小的空間,我們稱它為地球,但又有誰知道這地方以外究竟有多大、多廣闊?對這個宇宙來說,我們只是一點的塵埃,在上面停留。直至主人察覺到我們的那一天,拿起抹布一抹,我們便要消失了。

We are living in a very tiny space, which we called Earth, but who knows how big the WORLD is beyond Earth? We are merely a dust that lingers in the universe. When the creator noticed our existence, and with a single wipe, we will all vanish.

不過是 宇宙間的一點塵埃

「不要被外表迷惑,現實永遠只有一個。」

-村上春樹《1Q84》 

 

事物往往和外表不一樣,意思是現在你要去做一件非同一般的事,一旦做了這樣的事,往後的日常風景,看上去也會和平常有點不一樣。雖則看上去和平常有點不一樣,但現實中並沒有改變。

“Don’t let appearances fool you. There's always only one reality”

- Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

 

Things are always different from their appearances. It’s just that you're about to do something out of the ordinary. And after you do something like that, the everyday look of things might seem to change a little. Things may look different to you than they did before. But don't let appearances fool you. There's always only one reality.

不要被外表迷惑,現實永遠只有一個。

Everything’s the same

in a la-la land machine.

就算整天都走著,也絕對看不見一樣的風景。

You never come across a same scenery even if you keep walking for a whole day.

並不是全部

Not at all
