‘Lived Absence of Objects’ 系列
文／吳依宣
日常生活中，物件通常是作為系統的一部分進入我們的日常生活，而系統能掌握物件與世界的互動。基於總體化、碎片化及透明性的當代秩序，物件之間往往只能透過“溝通”建立其客觀關係，而無法相互呼應。但當物件與物件被編制在一起時，他們便會相互指涉，且必須透過對彼此進行抽象化來相互引用。

透過先前對於攝影與現象學（Phenomenology）的研究，我嘗試以直觀的方式描述外部世界，並以「主觀詮釋被拋棄的」拾得物（found object）爲練習對象，在作品中呈現物出其不穩定的狀態，去尋求新的詮釋與再認識。

在近期藝術實踐當中，藉由大量搜集各地家居室內、外空間之影像，我試圖懸置（suspend）日常空間的表面，將其重新詮釋並「還原」成立體裝置和雕塑。我透過將物件從已經嵌入的系統中抽離出來，進而強調個體存在狀態，並藉此去延展這些生活碎片的痕跡在在消逝與再現之間、開展與隱藏之間、同質與異質之間，甚至跨文化與本土之間，所遺留的互動張力。

*此系列包含《Framing the Ordinary’》、《Connections and its Extension》以及《Unfolding a Plain of Remnant》等三件作品

‘Lived Absence of Objects’ Series
Text / Sara Wu
Objects are constructed together as part of a system which enables them to enter our daily events and govern our interactions with the world. In this system, objects themselves need to refer to others by endowing one another with abstractness while their identities are replaced.

Due to the present time order based on totality, fragmentation, and transparency, things are being increasingly objective and interdependent. Instead of responding to each other mutually, as a result, object and subject tend to build their relationships through communication.

In this work, I try to produce the sense that all things exist in between each other as responses to the phenomenon that things are being progressively interdependent. Through suspending and recomposing the surfaces of everyday living spaces, I attempt to extend the relationship among those objects by presenting their tensions—between folding and unfolding, found and made, absence and presence, object and subject.
*This series includes the work 'Framing the Ordinary', Connections and its Extension' and 'Unfolding a Plain of Remnant.'
