林 智子
跨領域藝術家林智子曾在京都及倫敦接受藝術訓練,其創作反映自身的遊牧天性,她曾旅居五國,足跡遍及美國新墨西州的廣大沙漠、喧鬧的英國倫敦大都會,及其他曾讓她接觸不同文化、體驗不同人性連結、親匿性與距離感的地方,這些經驗使她對現代社會中人與人的親密感和溝通產生興趣,成為她的創作主題,此後她便不斷運用各種媒材對此主題進行探索,也與不同專家建立合作關係中林智子的創作計劃曾於世界各地的美術館及藝廊展出,其中包括倫敦維多利亞與艾伯特博物館、大阪國立國際美術館和熊本市現代美術館。她現居京都,平日藉由在城市中漫步發掘新的創作可能性,尋找平凡中的不凡。
Tomoko is a multidisciplinary artist trained in Kyoto and London. Her work reflects her nomadic nature, having lived and worked in five different countries, from the vast deserts of New Mexico, USA, to the cosmopolitan and chaotic city of London, UK, places where she has been exposed to various cultures and experienced different types of human connections, closeness and distance. These experiences led to her interest in modern society’s human intimacy and communication issues as a theme of her work. Since then, she has been exploring this theme through various mediums and established several collaborations with various experts. Her projects have been exhibited in museums and art galleries around the world, such as the V&A, London, the National Museum of Art, Osaka, and the Contemporary Art Museum, Kumamoto. She now lives in Kyoto and explores new work possibilities by walking around the city and finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. |
科技的發展日新月異,我們的日常生活被各種通信工具佔據,特別是智慧型手機在我們生活中的角色日益吃重,似乎透過和在世界不同角落的人快速分享資訊,就能產生一種立即「連結」的感受。然而,人類情感總是飄乎不定,難以真正傳遞片刻的共聚感,或捕捉與溝通對象之間那種微妙的情感波動。 此計劃的目的是要運用能夠以人類感官分享的方式,透過智慧型手機,捕捉二 人目光交會時的微妙情感共時,強化他們眨眼時產生的節奏及共鳴,彰顯人類之間的親密感。
New technologies are advancing rapidly and there are now just so many types of communication tools that fill our everyday lives. Especially, smartphones play increasingly greater roles in our lives. They seem to engender an instant feeling of ‘connectedness’ by sharing
information with anybody in the world in a blink of an eye. However, human emotion is eeting and always shifting that it is hard to truly convey a moment of togetherness or capture a subtle emotional uctuation of the other person that you are communicating with.
The goal of this project is to celebrate human intimacy by capturing a subtle emotional synchrony between two people while their eyes crossing each other and amplifying the rhythm and the resonance of their blinks using smartphones in a way that can be shared through the ve senses.
