Enlightenment, a notion with historical reference to the European intellectual movement of the 18th century, lays the foundation for the presentation of works by 21 young and creative talents participating in this exhibition, Enlightenment: MFA Graduation Show 2018. While the politics and scientific reasoning associated with the historic movement may seem irrelevant to art, the celebration of individuality and critical thinking during the Age of Enlightenment calls to mind what is essential in creative practices of any kind. One may say that artists are constantly “enlightened” by their experiences from everyday life. Creative works in various media showcased in this exhibition, including photography, video, animation, mix-media installation and performance, are virtual or physical manifestations of each and every artist’s “enlightened” experience. Some of the works may require a more conceptual and philosophical understanding; others ask for attention on their audio-visual and aesthetic presentations. Through this exhibition, more importantly, the artists’ common goal is to deliver a comparable “enlightened” experience that had once inspired and motivated them. And through the appreciation of works in this exhibition, viewers could attain, hopefully, yet another state of spiritual “enlightenment” of their own. 

2018年藝術碩士畢業展,主題源自18世紀歐洲知識界掀起的啟蒙運動(Enlightenment),共展出21位年輕藝術家的畢業作品。與這場歷史運動息息相關的政治和理性科學精神,雖然看似與藝術領域無關,但啟蒙時代所推崇的個體性和批判思維,對任何形式的藝術創作活動來說都是必需的。藝術家也可說是不斷從日常生活經驗中受「啟蒙」。

是次展覽中的各種媒體創作,包括攝影、錄像、動畫、混合媒體裝置和表演,都是每位藝術家「啟蒙」體驗的虛擬或實體表現。若干作品可能需要較多概念和哲理上的解讀,有些則較著重於視聽和美學上的演繹。但更重要的是各位藝術家的共同目標,是希望將一些曾經啟發和激勵他們創作的「啟蒙」時刻,轉化為相類的體驗,通過這次展覽重現人前。觀者在欣賞作品時,或許可以在精神上獲得另一種屬於自我的「啟蒙」狀態。

Unravel is a collection of artistic discoveries stemmed from the series of experimentations in the MFA studio sessions. Diving deep into the recurring process of learning and unlearning, we attempt to unfold and untangle the mysteries of arts. Finding our ways among the many constructions and deconstructions, we engage ourselves with sound, images, materials, virtuality, actuality, bodies and space, from which the most valuable dialogues with ourselves and the contemporaries sprouted.

The exhibition showcases a body of works in the form of animation, video installation, interactive digital game, performance, painting and photography. The wide variety of artistic interests and focuses demonstrate our diverse backgrounds and specialties.

Unravel is a segment of our creative journey composed of multiple diverging points, which reflects individual experiences and trajectories that prepare us for future dialogues and possibilities.

這個展覽集合多個藝術探索的成果,而這些藝術探索皆源自我們在創意媒體藝術碩士課程中創作課堂裡進行的一系列實驗。我們沉浸在學習和拋卻所學的反覆過程中,試圖解開(unravel)藝術的奧秘。通過不斷的建構和解構,我們試驗了聲音、影像、物件、虛擬、現實、身體和空間等不同形式,從中萌生了不少與我們自身和當代生活相關的重要對話。

是次展覽的作品形式多樣,包括動畫、錄像裝置、互動電子遊戲、表演、繪畫和攝影。形式各異的藝術趣味與聚焦點展現了我們多樣的背景和專長。

2018年藝術碩士學生展,是我們創作生涯的一個段落,由多個發散點聚合而成,展現了我們每個人的獨特經歷與人生軌跡,這些都是我們在未來的創作路上繼續探求對話和可能性的基礎。
