土星協作計畫vol.8 Ahguei Ho 何明桂 個展 尋找魯賓遜漂流記

延續之前以虛幻中求真實的探索精神,創作者過去在夢境、在回憶、在友人的奇境描述中尋找堅實的情感記憶。看似之間沒有相連性,但卻是在一團混屯之中捕捉相似的、容易被摧毀的、我們稱之為人生的虛夢。
此次個展源自於其記憶中,在孩童時期第一部看的電影:「魯賓遜漂流記」。殘留的記憶僅有電影主人翁閒適的荒島生活,包含那面土牆、土燒的陶瓶、茅草屋簷、蔚藍的海島天空、古銅色的身體和焦黃的頭髮。那樣的閒適生活成了一種莫名的嚮往,簡樸的想法在一個學齡前兒童的心裡埋下了種子。
因此以此部電影為始,重新尋找「魯賓遜漂流記」的精神,以及它在創作者身上發酵的關於生命的想法。展覽中將另外呈現以手繪動畫製作的吉光片羽,並為能聽見不尋常聲音的友人製作一首曲子。

In the adventurous pursuit of seeking truth in illusion, the artist mines sound emotions in her memories and dreams, and the strange encounters of her friends. These seemingly disparate stories capture the semblance and fragility of what we could call the empty dreams of a life in its chaos.
This solo exhibition is inspired by the first film the artist saw as a child: Robinson Crusoe. Its remnants now only include the protagonist’s leisurely life on a deserted island, a dirt wall, earthenware bottles, a thatched roof, blue island skies, a tanned body and sun-bleached hair. An inexplicable yearning for that unhurried life was planted in the heart of a young child.
That being the case, the artist would like to revisit the spirit of Robinson Crusoe, starting from this film, and the idea of life that it fermented in the artist. This exhibition includes memorable fragments in her life created with hand-drawn animation and a song composed for a friend who can hear unusual sounds.
