迷識 Labyrinthine

宇宙萬有與無常如同流動的建築,光影交錯如織樂音,幻化成相,而經拾景,由書頁涵融。書籍體現了精神與物質維度與的疊加態,如此虛實消融與再創之下心靈空間的築建實驗,運用版印影像、流體、纖維等媒材於頁面移轉間形塑敘事層次,空在有中,隱作集體無意識與環境相依鍵結之投射。

 

人們無意識下對場域的理解及使用模式皆廣受文化影響,而這樣精神上的承傳爾後再造實體空間,反覆積累演化。一如「之」字結構,存有不同領域的複合意涵,當步履實落其間,蜿蜒、深刻轉折乃至預期外的展開,亦內化而成萬千風貌的心靈地景。作品企圖藉構建書體、配置閱讀動線以鋪陳形氣,並探索更多成就複合觀看、建立有序或無序解譯方式的可能性。

 

閱讀行為因著時空變換而不斷衍異,觀者也在沉浸經驗中被默化潛移,整個過程極為個人且無可取代,甚至彷若隨宿主成長的有機物,它是如此立體與鮮活。於是閱讀藝,解譯心,超乎於形。可視與不可視的宇宙中包含無數看似悖立的存在,然而隨內觀連結本源自性,覺萬物一體,我們曾以為的界限何來?矛盾又是否為真?

"–and now a few steps
from wall to wall,
up those stairs
or down the others,
then slightly to the left,
if not the right,
from a wall within a wall
up to the seventh threshold,
from wherever to wherever
to the very intersection
where your hopes, errors, failures,
efforts, plans, and new hopes
cross paths
so as to part.

Road after road
without retreat.
Access only those
you have before you,
and there, as if in consolation,
twist after twist,
gasp after gasp,
view after view.
You may choose
where to be or not to be,
to overpass or to pull over,
only not to overlook.

So this way or that,
if not the other,
by intuition, by premonition,
by common sense, by chance,
by hook or crook,
by crooked shortcuts.
Through whichever rows upon rows
of corridors and gates,
quick, since in the meantime
your time is running short,
from place to place,
to those many still left open,
where there’s perplexity and darkness
but also gaps and rapture,
where there’s happiness, through mishap
is just a step behind,
whereas elsewhere, hither thither
here and there, wherever,
fortune in misfortune
like brackets in parentheses,
and yes to all of this,
then abruptly an abyss,
an abyss, but a little bridge,
a little bridge, but shaky,
shaky, but the only,
there’s no other.

There must be an exit somewhere,
that’s more than certain.
But you don’t look for it,
it looks for you,
it’s been stalking you
from the start,
and this labyrinth
is none other than
than yours, for the duration,
your, until not your,
flight, flight–
"

— Wislawa Szymborska, ’Labyrinth‘ , from Here
