「與你相遇」(Serendipity) :「為身體書寫」計畫(Writing on the body)紀錄影片
「為身體書寫」(Writing on the body)計畫在今年從二月紐約開始,藝術家在與不同的參與者談話後,在他們願意「分享」的身體部位書寫。藉由參與者的共同合作,將他們的記憶與故事透過藝術家的書寫重新詮釋成另一種視覺語言。身體書寫的內容更像是私密的日記,由藝術家與參與者共同創作。這個作品計畫集結的影片「與你相遇」(Serendipity),英文有「意外發現珍貴事物的機緣」之意,藝術家常在與參與者的對談中意外發現有趣事物的經驗與智慧,就像是一趟意外的冒險之旅,寫下了旅程中的「某一頁」。這件作品將當時創作過程的紀錄內容呈現,並在台南持續邀請當地的民眾參與這項計畫一同展出。
Serendipity: documentary of "Writing on the Body"
The project of ""Writing on the Body" has been launched since February 2016 in New York. After talking to the participants, the artist wrote on the parts of bodies they were willing to "share". Through the collaborations of participants, the artist reinterpreted their memories and stories into another visual language. The body works are like private diaries co-created by the artist and the participants. Videos recorded during the process are collected as "Serendipity", which also means luck of finding valuable or pleasant things by accident. During the project, the artist often discovered interesting experiences and wisdom of life that were not expected. It was like a page of unexpected adventure written down in a journey. The documentary presents the creation process of the project. Participants in Tainan are also invited to be part of the exhibition.
