剛柔之外：性別的灰色地帶－劉純峻創作論述

在整個社會能逐漸接受各種多元文化之際，與所有人都息息相關的性別文化的部分，在父權體系的影響下，總是難以突破陽剛與陰柔的框架，同時，這也造成了許多性別歧視與暴力的現象。身為視覺藝術創作者，筆者期望藉本研究與創作破除陽剛與陰柔的二元思維，並提供一種認識多元性別認同的角度。本篇論文為此系列創作《剛柔之外－性別的灰色地帶》的完整論述與學術層面的研究。在本文中，筆者將自身性別經驗與社會文化脈絡做連結，以認知發展論對性別刻板印象進行分析，整理性別刻板印象與性別特質中的陽剛與陰柔以及父權體系之間的關係，以筆者所提出的「特質區間」與「性別創意」的概念去回應父權體系下的陽剛與陰柔，探討解構與重建既有性別價值判斷系統的可能性。在創作中筆者以灰濁色調將「特質區間」的概念視覺化，以多色、多層次罩染技法回應「性別創意」的融合，從中體現多元性別的樣貌，提供認識多元性別的角度。在實際的創作與研究的過程中，筆者體認到父權體系對社會影響之深，絕非一朝一夕就能抹除，研究與創作僅能給予性別觀看上的新思維，但要破除陽剛與陰柔的藩籬，達到完全的多元性別認同，還是必須要靠日常生活中長時間的實踐與堅持。

As the entire society has been gradually accepting all kinds of cultural diversity, the gender culture that is closely related to everyone always uneasily break through the framework of masculine and feminine under the influence of the patriarchy. In the same time, it also caused plentiful phenomena of gender discrimination and violence. As a visual art creator, I hope to eliminate the dualistic thought of masculinity and femininity through my research and creation, and provide perspective for understanding the multiple gender identity. This paper focuses on the research of complete discussion and academic research under the series of Beyond Masculinity and Femininity: The Gray Areas of Gender. In this article, the author (creator) connects own gender experience with social and cultural contexts, in order to carry out the analysis through applying theory of cognitive development on gender stereotypes. Later, the relationship between gender stereotypes and gender traits in masculine and feminine and the patriarchal system, has been sorted out. Based on the concept of “trait interval” and “gender creativity” proposed by the writer, it means to respond the masculinity and femininity under a patriarchy, and explore the possibility of deconstructing and reconstructing the existing system of judging gender value. In the creation, creator visualizes the concept of “trait interval” with gray color and responds the fuse of “gender creativity” with multi-color and multi-layer oil painting glazing techniques, in order to reflects the look of diversity and provide perspectives of gender diversity. During the process of actual creation and research, the creator realized that the profound social impact under a patriarchy will not be eliminated in a short duration of time. Research and creation can only give new thinking on the gender view, but in an attempt to break the barriers between masculine and feminine as well as achieving full of diverse gender identity, we still need to rely on long practices and insistences during daily life.
