Jason Hou+苗晶:「人参」
DawanArt Paris Espace
7月5日-7月31日
Jason Hou+苗晶二人组将于7月5日举办他们的驻留呈现,作为DawanArt邀请的新一期巴黎驻留项目(2018.5-2018.7)艺术家,这次展览「人参」集中了他们在巴黎驻地生活创作的成果。
时间被取消了,无数日常之物都仿佛成了拜物教的祭品。光让黑暗的世界更加透明;耳朵在幻听中被不由自主地打开。艺术家无意制造假象,牺牲、游戏、化石、沉积,所有的一切牵连着他们各自的记忆和幻想。独特的感官世界,却浸泡着普遍化的可能,于是沟通起更为广泛的情感。从《博物柜》蒐集万物的梦;到《乐园碎片》那些久远失落的世界;再到《中药柜》中能量与菁华的神秘转换,类似人参粗壮根茎隐含的交互代码;最终一切跌入《忘》中,罹患失忆症的物种,在不断的误传、遗失与编撰中改造着自己的历史。如同文艺复兴早期博斯绘画的二十一世纪版本,这个声音+影像二人组的创作在“原始未来主义”的基调上不断推进。类似《尘世乐园》的奇思异想,被以数字变体的方式重新构建。在不断切换的浸入式场景中,观者的各种感知被次第打开,链接上古老的程式。
电源插拔之间,我们经历了千年之旅。
或许,你还能记起;或许,你已然忘记。▧

Jason Hou + Miaojing :Ginseng
DawanArt Paris Espace
July 5 – July 31, 2018
Jason Hou + Miaojing, the audio-visual duo invited by DawanArt for the new edition of artist residency in Paris (May – July 2018), will open their show “Ginseng” on July 5th2018, presenting their creations and reflections achieved in the residency in Paris.
Time is removed; countless daily items seem to have become sacrificial objects. Light makes the dark world more transparent; ears involuntarily receive auditory hallucinations. The artists do not intend to invent illusions, sacrifices, games, fossils or sediments, all of which are engrained in their own memories and imagination. The specific sensory world is immersed in the possibility of universalization. They then communicate more widely. From the dream of collecting all things in Cabinets of Curiosities, to the lost worlds in Fragments of Paradise, and to the mystery transformation of energy within the codes of nature in Herbal Medicine Box like the interaction in the Ginseng's strong rhizome; eventually everything falls into Amnesia, telling the story of the species with a forgotten past. Like the 21st-century digital variation of The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch, the duo keeps honing their audio-visual language with their future-primitive vision. With their immersive images and sounds, the audience’s senses will be gradually expanded and linked to primal and whimsical rituals.
Between each power cycle, we travelled a millennium.
Perhaps you can still remember; perhaps, you have forgotten.
