Redux 归来

L’amour de Amateur 《业余的爱》
Faded into You 《为你迷失》
Dagrun Adalsteinsdottir (Iceland 冰岛)

The lenticular prints L’amour de Amateur and Fade into You explore the fragile positions of individuals when it comes to prescribed social roles. The images are made out of finding material on the Internet, playing with algorithmic definitions of validations and identities. L’amour de Amateur plays with vague societally defined roles of amateurs versus professionals, and questions who defines these boundaries? Fade into You explores fashion and beauty through comic gestures of people playing or acting out certain social roles. 

《业余的爱》和《为你迷失》这两个以“闪卡”这种表达形式的系列作品，探索了在面对社会约定俗成的角色时，个体所产生的无力感。作品中的图片均来自互联网，运用人工智能算法去“定义”了某种的“有效性”和“身份”。《业余的爱》以社会上对于“职业”和“业余”模糊的定义为灵感，质疑了其“制定者”的权威性。《为你迷失》通过人们用漫画般的动作，扮演着各种社会角色，来讨论了所谓的时尚和美丽。

China Redux 《中国归来》
Frankie Chow (Australia 澳大利亚)

This project reflects on the preservation and capitalization of tradition and ancient cultures in China during the present time of modernization and globalization. For two months I attempted to simulate traditional Chinese art forms with rudimentary skills while viewing tourist attractions of Zhujiajiao and the city of Shanghai. Merging together typically reformation, displacement, and retrospection.

这个系列作品反映了在现代化和全球化的背景下，对于中国传统和古文化的保护与资本化。在 拜访朱家角和上海的旅游景点后，我用两个月的时间，用最基本的技法，尝试去模拟中国传统的艺术形式。融合比较典型的中国图案和材料，基于阶层化、改革、替代和追忆的概念，这些作品是对我的祖籍国家的一场探索。

Watery Scene 《水景》
Liner Waves 《线性波浪》
Jina Jung (South Korea 韩国)

I portray the invisible forces of nature and try to communicate feeling within a moment, which allows for deeper contemplation between both the tangible and the intangible elements of nature. Since being in Zhujiajiao, I have created a series of paintings called "Watery Scene" and an animated video called "Liner Waves" which apply poetic scenes, infinite loops, and watery textures. By working on both paintings and 3D software gives the audience a chance to explore the depths and invisible layers composed therein.

我的作品描绘了在某时某刻渴望交流的情感，和自然中无形的力量，这也许能产生关于自然中有形和无形元素之间的，更深层的思考。在驻地期间，运用了诗意般的景象，无限的循环，以及水的各种纹理，我创作了系列绘画《水景》和动画短片《线性波浪》。通过传统绘画和新媒体3D建模两种创作模式，带领观众去探索其（自然）构成中更深层的、无形的层面。
