源碧君 / Yuen Pik Kwan-Jenny

​​​Artist Statement:

 

繪畫給我一種很珍貴的人性的感覺。科技的進步與社交媒體的發展,將人與人之間的關係變形。這個以科技主導的社會,製造出一種模糊的狀態。

在 The production of space (1974) 一書中,Henry Lefebvre 追尋精神與真實空間的和解,而我企圖運用繪畫及電子工具去尋找物體中富想像的卻又分離的空間,並嘗試在作品中表現出在邏輯上令人困惑的,但在畫面上流露出可想像的空間。用以提醒我們科技和媒體如何影響我們對空間的觀念與體驗。

 

Passionate about painting with media like pastel, oil and watercolours, paintings give me a sense of humanity that I treasure.  To me, the paint is the better “language” to express and to communicate with others.  After years of language and linguistic studies, I note both the important of language for communication as well as its limitations.  With all the digital innovations and social media, the relationship between people is under great transformation.  I would like to question this technology driven society and reflect particularly on the “blur” zoon where boundaries between the physical environment and the digital world fuses. 

In The production of space (1974), Henry Lefebvre searches for a reconciliation between mental space and real space.  My intention is to explore the negative space in vision, and thus to create a sense of imaginary and detached spaces of an object within a physical space by the use of painting and digital means.  The attempt is thus to create a logically confusing, but at the same time imaginary space projected within the pictorial, so as to remind people how our notion and experience of space is much influenced by the media and technology.
