一介之逆
關於一些微細的逆向力量或抗衡、一些擦身而過的路人或片段、一些陳舊未定性的歷史或時刻......透過研究地方歷史和重訪人物,以書本、展演、錄像裝置、影像及聲音等創作,討論由社會環境中的不安推進之集體抗衡的力量和人格。嚴瑞芳視展覽為一個感官的敘事體,探索個人與集體之間,那共通的抵抗本能;以不確定性作為出發點,作品提出社群連結、聯想和抵抗的可能。
A Room of Resistance
Yim Sui Fong constructs A Room of Resistance as a form of perceptual narrative in a series of books, performances, video installations, images and sound. Drawing on interviews and researching Hong Kong's history she uses subtle examples of reverse power or resistance, momentary fragments and passing moments, contentious historical facts and periods of time. Extending her previous work, she now explores the instinctive resistance that individuals and groups have against restless social conditions. Using these moments of “uncertainty” as a starting point, these new works show the possibilities of community building, associations and resistance.
