Siu Fei / 藝術場合, 藝術解決 — 回應《後#MeToo》藝術展覽公仔被露胸事件 “Like and…” at Post#MeToo Art exhibition. 2020.03.11-18
《後#MeToo藝術》一共有12個/組藝術家，16組作品，於賽馬會創意藝術中心L1藝廊和據點空間舉行。當中的小風波也許就是未來的大事件的思源。從2017年#Metoo 運動在國際間的廣泛傳播到一件作品的一件小事，在這裡我們分享的是參與藝術家温倩蘅（小肥, Wun Sin-hang Cynthia, aka Siu Fei）的筆記，在全景中帶著點睛作用，留給我們細味的空間。A docent at the Post #MeToo Art Exhibition found that the dolls’ clothes were unbuttoned, their breasts of the dolls exposed; it felt like they were being sexually assaulted. Soon after the docent immediately buttoned up the dolls, artist Siu Fei installed a board to the doll set that says, “Don’t touch my body !!” Here’s the artist’s own notes on the incident.
Natalie Chao / Are We All Wilderness? – camera, image, ‘you’ and the becoming 我們都是荒蕪之地
In our recent video Manifesto 2 Artists’ Workshops, Natalie A. Chao said the camera was there to protect herself on the many street events in Hong Kong since 2019. She questioned the camera’s invasive nature and wonder how her camera thinks. Textualizing images she “gleaned” in writing is then a necessary part of the imaging event. Here is a set of notes Natalie wrote while reflecting on a film she made, Are We All Wilderness? (2019), revised this year.
Dorothy Wong / 站在「錄像宣言一」與「錄像宣言二」的邊界上：族群參與改變了創作座標 Crossing the Border: videography re-oriented since community engagement
2018-2019年，黃加頌以 art collective o!sland成員的身份參與台灣森人藝駐計劃，到台灣太魯閤族的社區生活，後被鳳甲美術館邀請到台北北投社進行關於平埔族的計劃。黃加頌為「錄像宣言一」（2018）的策劃成員之一。她道出創作歷程上的改變：「2016－2017 錄像和影像為技巧訓練、自我察覺、從遙遠處觀看世界的練習。2017－2019 錄像為與他人、社區和世界連結的觀看點、載體和回應。」Dorothy Wong’s artist’s residency with Taiwan’s mountain communities changed her relation with videography.
Vanessa Tsai / 殭屍。 教室裡。臺灣。2020…2014。2016。
2014年3月18日，一群臺灣的大學生，為了制止海峽兩岸服務貿易協議不當立法通過而衝進了立法院，霸佔了立法院23天，引起社會各種討論。筆者於2016年生平第一次進行根管治療，之後嘴巴裡有了一顆不會感到疼痛卻足以協助咀嚼功能正常的牙齒。筆者不禁反思，傳統上的「孝順」、「不犯上」是以甚麼樣的形式進行著，因而記下這樣的感觸。
