Never say never


Before I pour out the feeling for today, I'd better not to read any other article or blog and focus on my own writing. I had a great day today. had a BBQ with housemates and friends, and enjoyed the sunshine very much. I love the time spending with my housemates and friends. I always dreamed about this before I came to UK: have beer and BBQ in the garden, with friends from all over the world, sit on the grass, chat a lot in common language, music around, laugh as loud as we can. I made it right after i moved into the happy house. the atomsphere here is amazing! the time i stay in London is the best time ever in my life. Life here totally opened my mind and led me to another world i have never experienced before. Even I experienced some shit moment, but on the other hand, i had mostly happy moment indeed. I met a lot of people from different countries, I looked into another world via talking with them. Even I did not travel anywhere outside of UK since I live in London, but I feel that I travel more than my previous REAL travel.

Today, I had BBQ with my lovely housemates: Julie, Anne Laure, Courtney, Hikaru, Sarah, and friends Kate, Roman, Atonie & his girlfriend, Alexia, Teresa and Courtney's friend Christine. It's a shame that sly was not here. He is a good boy and cool guy. Even artist is more like geek sometimes but he is not, but actually he is a really funny kid. sorry, for me he is a kid even he is not that younger than me. Last time we discuss something about asian culture, I quite like his open attitude of new things.

I like to talk with people i like. I like Roman, he is really cool and guy and good drummer as well. And he said something always really inspired for me. he has that kind of charismatic to make people confortable in the conversation. I like Julie and Anne Laure too. Both of them are nice, i really appreciate them because i never been taken care of as a kid. my mum did it, but not after grown up. in the happy house, i feel like I am the youngest one, i can do anything i want, and say something really childish, and have fun with them or do some trick on each other.

I am thinking, when I go back, I definately miss here in London.
but it will be the same, i am in London, i miss Taiwan too.


Recently I realized something, and grew up a bit I believe. When I was young, I want to seize the whole world in my hands, and keen to everything in my desire. I do not understand the time to give up, and have not experience of compromising between reality and faith.

As we grew up, angles and sharpness from teenage have been modified, we are more or less experience socialization period. We are no more aggressive like the young.
what i want to say is, the older you are, the more you have to give up. but let's try to say in a positive way: you will understand what is in the priority. then you will find a way to keep you faith and earn a living as well. We will finally realize that we cannot own everything all times or lucky enough to get chance. but we still to be positive.

So, let's think the leaving is for good. And I cannot wait for any exciting chance to come over. Be prepared.

[展覽] 祕境 - 士林紙廠

其實是一種很矛盾的心情 我喜歡安安靜靜的展覽空間 不過看到明明是好展卻沒什麼人來看又會覺得可惜 但是一旦分享了就又一窩蜂的擁進人潮 所以到底是自己私藏還是分享好的天人交戰 http://www.garden91.org/paradise.html 士林紙廠離士林捷運站只有一點點距離的地方 有容基金會在那裡的展覽 之前展過妹島和世 現在展世界新聞攝影獎 呂理煌+與其他人的祕境 跟田中宇佐的禮物 覺得是個很幽境的替代展覽空間 祕境這個作品有種很微妙的氛圍 歡迎大家不要彼此打擾的去看 好好用心體會這份意境

[展覽] 新宮晉 - 風帶來光

說好要寫一直沒寫,大概是這個展離我家太近,每次走過經過都是一個"看展"經驗,反而不會嚴肅的寫成一篇看展的文章吧!!! 在都會區裡的稻田,忠泰建設這塊吸引我注意的地,始於在我還沒出國前這邊展出林銓居的晴耕雨讀。古人說,小隱隱於山林,大隱隱於市。晴耕雨讀聽起來就像是古代陶淵明採菊東籬下,悠然見南山的悠閒。然而,三四年前大直愛買美麗華附近這塊地不斷地在大興土木,一點都看不出來曾經這裡也只是基隆河截彎取直重劃區的一片稻田而已。晴耕雨讀在某個角度上來說只是重新還這塊地原本地貌。 所以看到這塊土地又重新植滿了到綠油油的稻子,成為在鄰近現代建中還有數座情人旅館間的一個綠地,其實也滿是欣慰。 風帶來光是這個展覽的名稱。風要如何帶來光? 我想個人解讀是風所帶來的光景。轉動的風車,在溫室裡,在水田中,在狀似穀倉的網架中。平靜無風的時候,展示的是靜物雕塑的美,然而當風來的時候,搖曳的水稻和旋轉的扇葉交織成在城市裡的田園風光。 晚上稻田裡的風車 現場裝置(一) 現場裝置(二)

聽覺系李清照:吳長蓉「聲聲幔」

聽覺系李清照:吳長蓉「聲聲幔」 對於吳長蓉的印象還停留在小豬萬花筒,入圍 2010 年改制後的台北獎帶給我頗深刻的回憶。當年入圍除了展出之外,展場布置也交由藝術家自己包辦。吳長蓉將作品將展場布置成一個彷彿 2001: A Space Odyssey 的經典畫面,只是太空艙變成小豬竄動的萬花筒影像,引領觀眾進入一個超現實的幻境。 睽違兩年的個展「聲聲幔」,展出吳長蓉的四件新作品,在整個觀展的過程中作品相互呼應,甚至可將此展比喻為是一首具備前奏、副歌,甚至還有 RAP 的曲子。 一踏入展覽空間,很難不被映入眼簾的帆布游泳圈給”吸入”。當你期待看到影像,卻是讓作品侵占了你的耳朵,用聲音的片段填滿想像。當視覺被遮蔽時,聽覺會更加的敏銳,雖然”看見”了作品,然而在視線所及的灰白影像卻成了眼罩,聽覺成了構築想像臨場的實景的主宰。藝術家用〈聲聲幔〉揭開了「聲聲幔」的序幕,也鋪陳了這個必須在視覺與聽覺交互詰辯的展覽前奏。 〈我在路上〉是吳長蓉獻給每天和生命殘酷現實赤身搏鬥永不放棄的人們,當然,也包含了自己的父親。以每秒 30 張圖像播放的方式,配合著腳步聲音和點滴計時器節奏,身批紅色毯子在操場上進行復健的身影,彷彿化身為超人,打敗惡疾病痛。只是有如莫比斯環不斷前進的軌跡,卻洩漏出了些許不由自主的感傷。 〈不好意思〉則提供了另外一種視覺角度,將攝影機架設在 Ubike 上,將自身化為他者,探索一名腳踏車騎士在面對不熟悉的城市與路上的陌生人們相互碰撞的關係與距離,在影像的最終停留在某個環形廣場,川流不息的往來行者、騎士穿梭,就像旋跳著華爾滋的大型舞會,卻也更像一張唱盤不斷地變換節奏,彷彿一場夜未深的銳舞派對。 〈迷走台北〉是整個展覽最為迷人的部分,如同最令眾人傳唱的副歌一般,忍不住總會哼上一兩句。畫面是我們既熟悉卻又不熟悉的夜間台北,一場深夜派對筋疲力盡之後,無法搭上末班捷運的才能見到的都市奇境。快速前進變化的畫面,彷彿派對尚未結束的電音帶來耳鳴的後遺症,不斷切換的空蕩街道,影射在台北迷路的過程的焦慮、慌亂。然而,隨著畫面引領的路徑,前進的方式變得規律、輕盈,甚至習慣、進而享受「迷路」的感覺,忍不住隨著節奏和畫面,放縱自己的眼睛和耳朵奔馳在深夜的台北。四件作品堆疊...
