Liao Wen shortlisted for Pro Helvetia 2025 Residency Program
July 9, 2024Capsule Shanghai is pleased to announce artist Liao Wen's participation in Pro Helvetia 2025 residency program. 廖雯1994年出生于成都,现居住于香港,2016年毕业于四川美术学院版画系,2019年从中央美术学院实验艺术学院取得硕士学位。 廖雯常以雕塑为媒介,其实践亦涉及表演和影像。受启于早年对木偶的研究学习,她创作同时具有原始感和未来感的类人类雕塑,刻画具有张力的身体瞬间状态,借以展露身处阈限阶段的不安定的生命体验。她汲取来自木偶学、神话-仪式人类学、医药学、艺术史及身体感知的养分,思考投射到身体之上的社会秩序、技术与权利的规训, 并想像未来身体的可能性。 延续她自2021年开启的「节律之仪」系列创作,廖雯将在这次瑞士之行继续她对仪式、神话及身体的长期研究。她将参与瑞士现代及传统仪式、节日,从女巫滑雪赛事行至狂欢的巴塞尔;从凛冬游荡着鬼魅的雪原到初春响彻牛铃的山城,去探究仪式如何受地貌、历史和语言等因素影响,发展或革新出截然不同的物质形式和形制。她将从物质与象征、身体与投射、禁忌与僭越三个角度切入考察,把对瑞士的仪式研究与她过去对希腊、中国的仪式研究进行比较,重新解读人类与仪式的依存关系。她将通过摄影、录像、手绘草图及采访等方式收集文献资料,并开展表演讲座、工作坊等活动。Read more -
