摘要 「小童與好漢」—從性意象探討潛在自我,本創作論述是筆者自我分析及探究2004年至2009年以來的作品,陳述這五年在創作上對「性意象」這個議題所做的研究,並且釐清創作上的形式脈絡與理念思維,全文有四個章節。 在第一章緒論的部分主要是闡述說明在創作上的研究動機與目的,以及研究範疇與方法。 第二章以「性與自我心理意象」作為論述的主要議題。將筆者在記憶中曾經碰觸到的情感經驗,及其所影響到的內在心理變化;分析自我不安及焦慮如何轉化為個人創作的根源。創作了「性的嘲諷」系列作品,是外在複雜生活中的自我解嘲,再透過以記憶、心理、潛意識為主題的相關藝術家與雕塑作品的研究與分析,了解彼此之間的異同,進而確立個人創作在雕塑領域及藝術史中所處的位置。 第三章「作品形式分析」是分別是:「性器造型中的情感記憶」、「孩童形象下的社會隱喻」與「空間包覆裏的心理意識」三個部份分析作品,初期是以木雕單純的表現性器造型,隱喻性的描述,經過一段時間對作品的閱讀與思索後,在造型上做某些的轉化,進而轉向表現成人與孩童形象的語言,藉著形體姿態的變化闡述不同的心理情境。反覆推演與反省並闡述各階段之創作原由與演繹歷程,詳細說明作品的實踐。 第四章「造型實踐」,論述2004年以後在作品造型與結構上的發展與演變。分別從材質、空間、結構上分析形式技法與理念發展,作品中呈現表皮包覆下的內外空間,從內部的膨脹與收縮,到外表的緊繃與鬆軟,說明個人與外在之間的衝突與和諧,如同混沌不明的狀態,希望透過自然木材質的物性,讓簡單造形在彼此密切的連結與共存關係下,體現生命力。 結論為本創作論述的研究心得整理,從學習過程中的體悟與自省,進一步理解個人的創作,以及未來的發展與期望
Abstract Boy and Man: A probe into sexual imagery of latent selfhood is an self analysis and exploration of my works from 2004 to 2009, which focused on the issue of “sexual imagery.” I try to clarify the context of forms and ideas through this dissertation, which is consists of four chapters. In chapter one “Introduction” the motives and goals of my creation are elaborated; the fields and methods of my research are covered in this chapter as well. Chapter two focuses on the issue of “sex and self mental imagery.” I talk about my own emotional experiences and the mental changes influenced by them, analyzing how discomfort and anxiety have been transformed into the origin of creation. The “sarcasm of sex” series is a satire on the self in real life. Furthermore, I make clear the position of my works in the field of sculpture and art history by comparing them with the works of relative artists on the aspects of memory, psychology, and sub-consciousness. Chapter three “Analysis on Forms” targets three different parts of my works: “the emotional memory within the model of sexual organs,” “the social metaphor of child image,” and “psychological consciousness in space.”At the beginning, I presented the models of sexual organs with wood sculptures and metaphorical descriptions; then the style of form transformed into the presentation of the images of adults and children, signaling my different mental condition. In this chapter I reflect further and elaborate on the reasons and process of my creation, and also explain the practice of each work in detail. Chapter four “The Practice of Styles” discusses the development and changes of the style as well as structure of my works since 2004. I try to analyze the skill of forms and the development of ideas from the aspects of material, space, and structure. The inner and outer space, whether it is inflation or contraction, rigid or soft, which is divided by the works, represents the conflicts and harmony between human beings and the outer world. I wish to show the power of life through the simple but connected style which presents the natural wood. The conclusion is the integration of some reflections I have on my works, through which I have a better understanding of my creations and also on future development.
