時下靈魂 the SOULS vol.3 代言魂魄

自畫像這東西,是天下間最難畫得好的東西,因為你很難忍得下手不去將自己逐少逐少地修飾一下,加上落筆稍有偏差,就只可以由得那一筆繼續偏差下去。另一方面,要在每次的作品中呈現同一個臉孔對我來說是一個難題,這方面實在不得不佩服漫畫組一眾從業員呢,現在就且看自己在這個平台上好好的磨鍊一番吧。

話說回來,其實我今次想介紹一下時下靈魂裡的主綫角色 - 魂,亦即是我自己的代言魂魄,選擇用沒有肉身的東西作主角的理由只有一個,,軀殼太沉重了,沒形沒色的,比有形有狀的更純粹,更自由。

《廣州創意文化園區》Easter holiday@Redtory紅磚廠

Redtory紅磚廠
這個假期省省地去了廣州渡假幾天,發現有個地方叫紅磚廠創意文化園區(Redtory紅磚廠)很想分享一下。這裡集工作室、創作小店和展覽於一個地方,或者現在各城市都多了手作市集,不過我仍是有興趣去看,因為你總會在不同地方看到那地方的特式,就如之前在日本大阪看過一個頗大規模的,是在展會內進行。而台灣雙連站迪化街那一帶大稻埕小藝埕的手作小店則是那種不太吃人間煙火的小清新,你會看得出是很用心作的那種。香港的呢?在有限空間內做著有限的創作,有待發展中,最大规模的算是PMQ,希望下次去的時候可以少一點商業品牌吧。是次來到廣州員村站附近的這園區,其紅磚外觀令我想起香港的牛棚,當然是大型很多也多元很多,畢竟牛棚多數只是開放展覽的場地,而且這裡勝在地方大,從兩行大樹並列的大道步進,在這燦爛陽光底下,我喜歡的是這地方的不太雕琢,沒有人理會我,想逛,想竭,隨你所想。



園區內除了表叔茶餐廳和紅螞蟻之外,還有一間有閣樓cafe的雜貨書店,閣樓雖小,食物的選擇也不算多,但當你喝著咖啡吃著抹茶cheesecake時,很無聊賴地擔天看著那很夠光線的排窗,你會很真實地感到自己是在生活而非單純的生存,同時也感到內心的靈感在calling,創作的你一定會明的~

Molding difficulties at home (made by gypsum powder and mold gel)

gypsum molding
Shin-Etsu KE-12
Last whole year, I've searched so many information about molding on web, I find it seems really not that easy to make it at home if I want to create a container body with curve. Actually it's easy to make a mold for object with simple shape, you just need the mold gel and gypsum powder, and then do it as the following steps will be okay.
molding steps
instruction given by Newlink Resources Limited

You could see the steps above, we need 2 mold blocks for outside mold when the final object is a solid. But since the object is an arc-shaped container, we should need 3 blocks instead. In these situation, difficulties come! Firstly, we don't have the vacuum casting machine at home. Secondly, when we have to make 3 parts of mold, and we must make the mold blocks(part 2 & part 3) by laying down the solid mold horrizontally, I really wonder if we could stick it tightly at the right position with the outside mold part 1? See the situation below, are there anybody got solution for these? I guess people may meet the problems during creating works, hope can join the discussion and make it solve, thank you!

南島國際美術獎 Austronesian International Arts Award 2016

南島國際美術獎Austronesian International Arts Award 2016
徵件 │ 2016南島國際美術獎

「南島」是從「南島語族」(Austronesian)這個人類學名詞而來,意指居住於南太平洋及印度洋各島嶼之族群,分布北起臺灣、東達復活節島、西到馬達加斯加島、南抵紐西蘭,其語言與人種眾多,居住地風景純淨、文化多元。

臺東縣政府特於每兩年辦理一次「南島國際美術獎」,召喚藝術家拓展藝術創作之能量,打開世界之心以當代省思與臺東在地特質、山海自然及南島語族的人文脈絡、環境議題、生活記憶等進行多角度國際對話。本活動更具體要求創作者親赴臺東進駐及創作,親身體驗南島語族於臺東的生活風貌,進而使作品與南島精神產生更深刻的呼應,與在地激盪出新美學能量,同時將這能量散播到國際,期待本美術獎成為一個開放平臺,展現世界各地創作者對南島議題的關懷。

參賽資格:不限族群、國籍,歡迎海內外之個人或創作團隊參加競賽。

Submission to the 2016 Austronesian International Arts Award

Philosophy
The word “Austronesian” comes from an anthropological term, Austronesian language family. It refers to ethnic groups living on islands in the South Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean. Such ethnic groups are widely distributed, covering Taiwan to the north, Easter Island to the east, Madagascar to the west and New Zealand to the south. The family contains a large number of Austronesian languages and ethnic origins with pure, clean scenery and diverse cultures in inhabited areas. Many literary reviews have proved that Taiwan is where the Austronesian language family originated. Thus, the Austronesian cultural lifestyle can be felt from the lives of Taiwan’s indigenous peoples.
Located on the eastern side of Taiwan, Taitung boasts much natural beauty in addition to well-rooted cultural elements. Austronesian culture happens to be a key element in Taitung’s cultural elements. Thus, the Taitung County Government organizes the Austronesian International Arts Award biennially as a way to encourage artists to expand the energy of their artistic creations, open up the heart of the world to contemporary reflections and multiple-perspectives, promote international dialogue regarding Taitung’s local characteristics, natural scenery, the cultural network, environmental topics, and the life memories of the Austronesian language family. This event requires creators to complete an artist residency program in Taitung, and experience Austronesian life personally during their creative process so that their artwork resonates deeper with the Austronesian spirit. This will produce new aesthetic energy that resonates with the locale, to be disseminated internationally. The hope is for this art award to become an open platform to express concern about Austronesian topics from creators around the world.

有關,文藝交煥。

art, creative, 文藝交煥, Idea exchange platform
夜無一人。

我就趁現無一人,述說一下我建立這片空間,亦即民藝交煥的原由。


現在不是巴洛克時代,也不是印刷技越見普及的Pop art時期,但無論世界進入了一個多不泿漫的時代,人類要演化到怎樣的一個模樣,也會有不同形式的創作。

只要我們都仍有思想,就仍會有創作。

本人並非一個擅於詞令的人,甚至很多時候會整個腦袋也充滿著大堆毫無關連的思潮,
這就是我的生活,不知你們的生活會不會都離不開這種情況呢?

或者,我們的肉身每天需要負責運作的具體事情太多了。
結果呢?心情留不下,靈感亦捉不住,白白流失的東西太多了。
而且要找對的人談論對的事談何容易?
一些有用有趣的資訊,與其被冷落辜負,遠不及跟有興趣的人分享之快,同意嗎?

之前輾轉找了很久,我發覺就是沒有一個地方可以聚集到一群有意思的人,一同交換一下自己的點子與創作。想找一些冷門一點但又能用作創作原料的資訊嗎?也是非常之困難,所以也非常希望大家能踴躍分享一下~

雖然這是一個交流性質的平台,但我希望這地方能夠活一點,所以我會定期在這個地方留下一些很本人的痕跡(如上:D)。好了,已經十一時多了,也是時候督促自己準備就寢了,晚安。
