我的愛，以及疲倦。
《"我"是 誰?》之005“Ourselves”
我2011年的研究所畢業專題《"我"是誰?》，
超現實風格的系列創作。
/
創作理念
吵雜的世界裡，我們戴上面具選擇沉默；
潛行於沉默面具下，我與自己的對話嘈嘈雜雜。
我們 期望 探索 追尋 掙扎 或試圖穿越，
試圖去尋覓所謂的〝自我〞；
卻發現——翻遍了身體裡或外，
其實找不到一個獨立存在的實體，足以被稱為自我。
面具之下——〝我〞是誰？
只是一個虛幻的謬誤執著；實際上不存在的空白符號...

本創作由Sigmund Freud的人格理論：原我(id)、自我(ego)、超我(superego)為發想起點。並且以超現實攝影手法做為影像語言的發聲基礎，經蒙太奇做選擇、擷取及重組，顛覆原有物象組合之既定思維模式。
期能藉此影像內容的組合，進行內在自我的對話，深掘創作者對外在世界的真實感受、及內在精神的反映狀態，並探討存在母題、及個體意識和群體間的網絡互動關係。在這種不斷自我整理及辯證的騷亂過程中，我試圖從中釐清自我、存在的樣態，映照出內在深層的生命境況。
影像裡「面具」的使用，可視為一種身分或狀態的象徵；「鏡子」及「水面」的反映意象，是明喻進入潛意識層面、或作者檢視自身的表現手法；而「門與窗」及「階梯」的圖像運用，是象徵過渡的符號，具有連接現實及非現實世界的暗示，也意味著向另一種狀態做轉換。
「人體」則是創作者自身的投射，獨自形態不安地飄移、揮舞著肢體，或掙扎角力、或遠眺尋覓、或逃脫，象徵創作者浮沉在意識／潛意識的幽微細語裡，試圖掙奮著尋找這則生命寓言的答案。

Insights of 《Who am "I" ?》:
In this noisy world, we put on masks and choose silence;
Under the mask of silence, the dialogue between I and self seems harsh.
We expect, explore, pursue, struggle and even transcend to find so-called “self”
However, we find —— after having searched inside and outside the body, there is no independent existing entity that can be called as “self”.
Under the mask, who am “I”?
It is only an imaginary fallacious persistence ; it is only an empty symbol that does not actually exist.

My works were inspired by Sigmund Freud's personality theory-- id, ego and superego. Besides, I used surrealistic photographic skills as the basis of image language and employed Montage method to select, capture and reconstruct for overthrowing traditional thinking mode of combination of objects in most of cases.
I look forward to conducting internal self-dialogue to dig out my true feelings to outside world, to reflect inside psychological status and to discuss the issue of existence, individual consciousness and interactive network relationships between groups. In this chaotic process of continuous self-organizing and -reflecting, I tried to clarify the shapes of self and existence, reflecting the state of internal life.
In the images, the use of “mask” could be regarded as symbols of identity and status. The reflective images of “Mirror” and “Water Surface” are expressions of entering sub-consciousness and self-examination. The images of “Door and Window” and “Stairs” could be referred to symbols of transition, a hint connecting real and unreal world, meaning transiting to another state.
“Human Body” is the projection of myself, such as lonely unsettling moving, swinging limbs, struggling, looking into far distance or escaping. All of these movements represent that I am floating up and down in consciousness and sub-consciousness, and struggling to find out the answer of life story.
