存在與消逝—梁凱晴創作論述

Abstract

「存在與消逝」藉由平面圖像結合現成物的創作為研究媒介，論述筆者出生並成長於香港——一個擁有多重殖民歷史背景的城市之所思所想，思索並探討個人對於身份認同、地域文化上的解析、轉變及構成。第一章緒論：以個人背景為創作緣起，涵蓋自身對於身份認同、地域文化、空間記憶、地方感等概念。第二章：文獻探討，將分爲兩節：第一節，複合媒材與空間構成，經由探討美國藝術家羅伯特·勞森伯格 （Robert Rauschenberg，1925-2008）、英國藝術家瑞秋·懷特里德（Rachel Whiteread，1963-）以及香港藝術家白雙全 ( Tozer Pak，1977- )的案例，分析複合媒材作品中的表現形式以及材質運用如何構成另一種空間經驗，從而打開全新的空間向度。笫二節，藝術與地域身份之關係，對藝術創作與社會、環境、歷史、身份等面向之關聯進行分析，研究德國藝術家安塞姆·基弗 (Anselm Kiefer，1945- ）、中國藝術家艾未未 （Ai Weiwei，1957-）及台灣藝術家吳瑪悧 (Mali Wu，1957-）能如何透過藝術創作反映地域歷史、俗民文化、在地環境及身份認同等關係，繼而彰顯時代精神。第三章：《存在與消逝》系列作品創作理念，從記憶與建築空間的擴張、現成媒材的脈絡與運用以及身份的測量、解構與呈現三方面互為闡發，構想系列作品。第四章：《存在與消逝》系列作品詮釋與實踐，說明了作品《30 X 30》、《懸空 3.5米》、《未來地誌學》以及《30kg》系列的創作理念、內容形式、技法及展覽呈現方式。第五章：結論，說明筆者與創作研究過程的反思，探尋感想以及未來延續。本創作研究旨在深入探討個人身份與記憶空間的交互關係，筆者於作品中嘗試挖掘平面圖像與現成物結合以構築空間的可能性。在媒材與圖像的選擇上，無論是材質還是載體，均圍繞自身對身份認同的觀點、延展與轉化，進而反思個人對地域身份的記憶、批判與省思。

This study employs a blend of paintings and ready-made objects as a research medium, delving into the author's introspections and reflections. Rooted in Hong Kong's intricate colonial history, the author explores personal identity, the nuanced interpretation of regional culture, its changes, and compositions.

This paper includes five chapters. chapter one draws from personal experiences as the creative catalyst, this chapter encompasses notions like identity, regionalism, spatial memory, and sense of place. chapter two is divided into two parts: Firstly, it delves into mixed media and spatial composition, dissecting the expressive forms of mixed media art through case studies of artists such as American artist Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008), British Artist Rachel Whiteread (1963-), and Hong Kong Artist Tozer Pak (1977-). Secondly, it investigates the nexus between art and regional identity, scrutinizing how artists like German artist Anselm Kiefer (1945- ), Chinese artist Ai Weiwei (1957- ), and Taiwan artist Mali Wu (1957-) reflect regional history, ethnic culture, religious beliefs and identity, thereby encapsulating the zeitgeist.chapter three is the conceptualization of the "Existence and Vanishing" series. This segment explores the creative concept of the series from three aspects: the expansion of memory and architectural space, the context and application of ready-made media, and the measurement, deconstruction, and presentation of identity. chapter four analyzes the "Existence and Vanishing" Series. This chapter minutely examines conceptual frameworks, content structures, techniques, and exhibition presentations in artworks "30 X 30," "Suspended 3.5 Meters," "Future Topography," and "30kg." chapter five summarizes the author's reflections on the research and creation process, personal insights, and future aspirations.

This research explores the interconnectedness of personal identity and spatial memory. The author endeavors to unearth the potential of amalgamating paintings with ready-made objects to construct space within artworks. Choices in materials and imagery orbit around the author's perceptions,expansions, and transformations regarding personal identity. The work delves into personal connections, recollections, critiques, and reflections on regional identity through this exploration.
