COLOR PROJECT

這是一個以「圓」進行的日記

紀錄日子是柔軟、不帶刺、沒有稜角的

 

365個圓捏成生活型態

裡面裝著每一天的自己

自己又從圓裡看到了什麼?

 

大大小小的、濃郁的、絢麗的、黯淡的。

有些日子特別深刻,在時間軸上擁有更大的重量。

通常日子也很平凡,一天、一週、一年,零零碎碎記不住的,卻也無法單獨看待。

 

直到開始畫圓,紀錄這些在日子變化下的自己,拼湊起來後卻成為一個更完整的我。

 

“COLOR PROJECT” is a one-year project. It is a digital diary written down with shapes and colors, inspired by life experiences.

 

The collection contains 365 pieces of work from 2019 to 2020. The circles are the reflections of myself. Mirror myself while reflecting the others.

 

Each piece represents an unique day of my life, hope it’s also special to you!

圓形是我對日子很自然而然的聯想。它柔軟、沒有稜角、不帶刺,很直覺的反應了我的個性吧!想像自己在生活的縫隙中不斷滾動著,一顆顆的圓影就是自我的投射。

This is a diary written down in "circles"
Recording how soft and tender the days could be.
The 365 circles forms my daily life.
They are the reflections of myself.

創作的靈感大多來自生活中。有時是展覽、表演,有時是漫畫、卡通,還有去過的地方等等。但也有很多時候純粹是因為喜歡、我想這樣做,不用有所顧忌、也不擔心有沒有人喜歡,對我來說這是最做自己的一年。

Most of my inspiration comes from daily life. Sometimes it could be exhibitions, performances, comics, cartoons, places I've been, etc. But there are also times I created what I like merely because I like it, and I wanted to do it this way. I didn't have to worry about it, about whether someone liked it or not. For me, that was the year I could be myself without pressure.

日子是連續的。會有現在,不是單一原因的促使,而是經由疊加到最後才成為現在的模樣。就像我進行的創作,也是一天一天累積、蛻變、成長,現在回頭看,不論是技術層面還是心境上都有很大的轉變。

 

這一顆顆的圓都是自我的反射,大大小小的圓代表日子在時間軸上佔有不同的重量。
對某些日子的印象很鮮明,比如特別快樂的一天或是特別難過的一天,就好像它們在等份的時間軸上硬是多了一截。另一些日子你則無法單獨記起那一天,你會說「那段日子」如何又如何。另一方面,日子既連續卻也不一樣,有很多很多面貌,就算做著完全相同的事也不會是完全相同的一天,而人也是,「不只是這樣」,這大概就是我想說的吧!

The days are continuous. The present is not caused by a single reason, but through the accumulation of things to become what it is now. Just like my creation, it also accumulates, transforms, and grows day by day. Looking back, there have been great changes in both my techniques and mood.

The days are continuous but not the same. There are many dimensions. Even if you do exactly the same thing each day, it still will not be the same day, and neither are people. "It's not just that",  is probably what I wanted to say.

這是兩幅連續的作品。當時正好是學期結束,我在倫敦生活了一小段時間。脫離壓力,生活過得很自由自在,甚至有點日夜顛倒,每天醒來就是進行創作,或到Tate看展,尤其享受半夜到凌晨的那段時光,靈感好像總是特別多。每天的分隔線漸漸模糊,對日子的認知只剩下白天與黑夜的不停變換。

These are two consecutive works. It was the end of term and I was living in London. Getting rid of pressure, I was living a very free life, even a little bit turning night to day, waking up every day to create or go to Tate Museum to see exhibitions. I enjoyed the time from midnight to early morning because it seemed that there was always a lot of inspiration. The dividing line between each day is gradually blurred, and only the constant change of day and night remains in the cognition of days.

那陣子剛開始看《星際牛仔》,對宇宙、星際這個主題深深地著迷。浪漫又奇幻,整部動漫有著自己獨樹一格的步調,並非緊湊的,卻一步步把你吸進去,好像黑洞的感覺。背景中一團團扭曲的、藍藍紫紫的,我稱為「宇宙泡泡」,嘗試將動漫裡爵士配樂的那種迷幻氛圍呈現在裡頭。

 I was watching Cowboy Bebop, and was deeply fascinated by the theme of the universe and interstellar. Romantic and fantasy, the whole anime has its own unique pace, and it sucks me in step by step, like a black hole. In the background, there are clusters of distorted, blue-blue-purple ones, which I call "cosmic bubbles". I was trying to present the psychedelic atmosphere of jazz soundtracks in the anime.

我在曼城看了 Cigarettes After Sex 的演唱會。流動與交纏是我對他們的印象,在黑暗之中流竄的情與愛是耀眼的粉紅色,不是可愛而是迷人又危險。畫面稍稍打破了原本的形狀,但在交纏之後,終究匯聚成一個圓。

  I watched the Cigarettes After Sex concert in Manchester. The flowing and entanglement vibes are my impressions of them. Love flowing in the dark is the color of dazzling pink, feeling charming and dangerous. The picture slightly broke the original shape, but after intertwining, it finally converged into a circle.

Each piece represents an unique day of my life,

hope it’s also special to you!
