城市之海-劉欣宜個展 City of the Sea--Liu Shinyi's Solo Exhibition


有溫度的人

黃敏俊

在偌大的木工工廠一隅,隱約看見一個瘦弱的身影,時而搬運木塊,時而敲打木頭,就這樣淹沒在木屑堆中,她是劉欣宜。

就是這般的隱藏自己,才能把溫度轉移到木頭的紋理上,也因為愛的緣故這溫度被傳播開來,藉著一件件的作品讓我們感覺到了這樣奇特的溫度,像極了全身流動的血液。從那木雕人形作品的刻痕中,感受到的是欣宜投射自己生命的歷程,因此我們都被深深的吸引著。


生長在動漫時代的她,在創作上難免會受到影響,欣宜選擇了這樣的一個形式出發,但她卻不會因為有點成績而自滿停頓,反而藉由否定自己想找出不同的路來,就這樣一直嘗試著新的方法,甚至把自己本來引以為傲的技巧簡化,作品便出現了許多抽象的元素,藉此把更多的意境隱藏在作品中,賦予觀者更大的想像空間。例如在"在風中行走2"這件作品,簡化的形象與俐落的雕工,讓觀者從形體的欣賞轉換成情感面的抒發,再繪上帶著禪意的色彩,更加顯出作品的不凡。


從欣宜的作品中我看到她試著從木頭材質的溫度,轉換賦予成為人們豐沛情感的溫度。相信從每個人駐足在她的作品面前就可以發現,這個溫度不是感動了我而已,並且一直持續感染周遭的人們。秋刀魚藝術中心自從2014年開始代理欣宜至今,已經有七年之久,看到欣宜在每次展覽中都能有所突破與成長,這無疑是我們最大的喜悅,未來期待欣宜能夠帶給大家更多精彩動人的作品。


A Person with Warmth

Huang Ming Chun

In the corner of such a spacious woodwork factory, there was a petite figure vaguely seen.

Carrying and beating woods,  the girl who whelmed inside the sawdust is Liu Shin Yi.

劉欣宜
LIU SHIN-YI

1992    年出生於台灣/台北       
2014    畢業於國立臺灣藝術大學雕塑系


孤獨帶著一絲落寞,而時間忘了向前,好比被遺忘的孩子,或坐或臥,時而抬頭望向遠方尋求一線希望,抑或低頭闔上雙眼沈靜心靈。一股哀傷、脆弱的神情展露在女孩的面容。 那是內心世界的反差與矛盾,如同小時候的我們都妄想長大,卻在長大後渴望回到當初。劉欣宜的雕塑,留下清楚的鑿刻,像是生命中一刀一刀磨練的痕跡,如此深刻、毫無保留,添上甜美爛漫的色彩,宛如在成長的過程,那些試圖掩蓋、偽裝,不輕易展露真實的自我的保護色。 女孩憂愁失望的臉龐,意味著成長中初衷與期待相互牴觸、拉扯的結果,最後選擇將最初的形象退到底線,保留美好天真的狀態來抵抗這世界。

1992    Born in Taipei, Taiwan
2014    Graduated from National Taiwan University of Arts, Department of Sculpture

Alone and lonely, time stands still, like a forgotten child, sitting or lying down, sometimes looking up far into the distance, hoping against hope, sometimes closing eyes silently and quietly, the girl seems sad and fragile.  It is the contrast and contradiction of one’s inner world, just like little children wish to grow up and the grown hope to get back to childhood. Leaving clear chisel marks, Liu Shin-Yi’s sculptures look like every track of life, so deep, without covering up, while adding on beautiful sweet colours, they look as if the protective colours for hiding real-self during the growing stage.  The sad, desperate face means a result of the conflict between her initial dream and anticipation.  At last, drawing back the original real-self, she chooses to retain the beautiful innocent form to face the world.

Alone and lonely, time stands still, like a forgotten child, sitting or lying down. Sometimes looking up far into the distance, hoping against hope, sometimes closing eyes silently and quieting the soul.

The child seems sad and fragile.


It is the contrast and contradiction of one’s inner world, just like little children wish to grow up and the grown hope to get back to childhood. Leaving clear chisel marks, Liu Shin-Yi’s sculptures look like tracks of life, each track so deep, withholding nothing; adding beautiful sweet colors, they act as camouflage for hiding the real-self during the growing stage. 


The sad, desperate face is a result of the conflict between the initial dream and anticipation. At last, coming back to the original self, the child chooses to retain a beautifully innocent form to face the world.
