38度C欲望滿足 38 Degrees C Satisfaction of Desire

38度C欲望滿足】去年聖誕節,我臥病在床,期間有很多奇異的夢境,這些夢讓我不斷在「真實」和「虛擬」之間探索,亦使我和潛意識好好連結,把我一直渴望的事,疑幻似真地滿足了。這個畢業作品,以三個單元為主軸:聖誕樹、夢遊和劇本,啟發自攝影大師杜安·麥可斯 (Duane Michals),利用「排列敘事」攝影手法,加上手寫文字,將夢境呈現眼前,繼續在虛實之間徘徊。

38度C欲望滿足 – 聖誕樹】貓奴才 … 不應該擁有聖誕樹 … 但她今年很想放出一棵樹來 … 她將會用長條物來裝飾它 … 取代鮮豔的球體。

38 Degrees C Satisfaction of Desire – Christmas Tree】The cat owner … shouldn’t have a Christmas tree … but she wants to put one up this year … She’ll try decorating it with rectangular strip ornaments … instead of colorful spheres.

38度C欲望滿足 – 夢遊】每次她進入餐廳時 … 她必須掃描二維碼 … 她已經使用這個應該程式十個月了 … 她很想移除它 … 它應該不再有作用了。

38 Degrees C Satisfaction of Desire – Sleepwalking】Every time she enters a restaurant … she must scan the QR code … she’s been using this app for ten months … She wishes to uninstall it … It shouldn’t be necessary anymore.

38度C欲望滿足 – 劇本】她的老師不斷要求 … 一個畢業作品的點子 … 用甚麼題材作為她的藝術作品呢?她祈求要一份劇本 … 然後神賜予給她。

38 Degrees C Satisfaction of Desire – Storyboards】Her teacher is pushing very hard for an idea … of the graduation project… What will be the theme for her artwork? … She prays for a storyboard … and she grants one from God.

作品將於「香港藝術學院高級文憑課程畢業展」中展出。展期:2023年7月19至31日 早上11時至下午7時 地點:香港柴灣柴灣道238號青年廣場2M04室。
