此創作論述主要透過女性主義的觀點去探討《杜十娘Lady Du》與《晚安母親》,並從中發現父權制度或男性的支配,才是劇中婦女受壓迫的基本根源。並由劇中女性角色的觀點重新檢視日常生活中的社會表象,再藉由創作者個人外在行為的經驗與感知,觀察出物質現狀和他人內在私密世界的樣貌,從肢體、空間、物質三者間的內在心靈感知與外在世界的脈絡裡,重新建構出劇中人物與當今社會,曾經共同面對過或正在轉變的性別議題與意象。再以特定的意象形塑出她們專屬的物件,使整體的舞台畫面成為創作系統中的符號,讓觀眾透過創作者的創作邏輯,建立起與自我當下、過去經驗、他者環境(即演員)之間的聯繫,在她們決定走向生命盡頭的時候陪同她們去經歷這場儀式。
This report is mainly composed of the feminism to elaborate the set design of“Du Shiniang, Lady Du”, and ”Night, Mother”. Through feminism, we can clearly realize that the male social system in this world is the original problem caused the oppressions to female. I analyze the female characters in those plays to construct the possibility of their daily life in this society, and by doing this, I have gotten closer to their inner sides of private world. And then, in order to arouse the imagination of audience, I created the specific images composed on stage to connect characters (actresses), space, and materials in the theatre. With the specific images, audience can discover the creation principles from set designer, following these principles to construct a bridge of mind that connecting and arousing immediate self-conscious and personal experience with the “living” characters who are going to end up their own lives in the plays.
