In Pirate, produced during Feng Chen's residency at the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam, the artist asks viewers to watch the movie with only one eye because he uses a new technology that challenges peoples’ visual and sensory experience. The audience is able to see three-dimensional images with one eye, but the video as depicted through the pirate’s perspective is flat.
A new visual experience leads to Feng Chen contemplate what else is possible, such as the creation of new visual effects. It has also caused him to rethink the impact of what we see in our everyday lives on our overall experience. The light information received from our retina is full of data that informs our worldview and subconscious. This is what he wants to study and explore.
冯晨曾为朋友制作一台机器 (因其只有一个眼睛功能正常,看到的世界是平面的,没有纵深感 )以弥补他的视觉障碍,使他能用一个眼睛看到立体的世界。
而在阿姆斯特丹驻留期间完成的作品《海盗》中,冯晨要求观众只用一只眼睛观看录像。他使用了一种新技术来挑战人们的视觉感官体验。观众用一只眼就能看见立体的影像,而在影片中海盗的眼里的世界却是平面的。
新的视觉体验引发冯晨思考其他的可能性,比如如何创造新的视觉效果。同时也促发了他重新思考基于经验所看见的日常生活给我们带来的影响。由视网膜接受到的光源携带了告诉我们世界面貌和潜意识的大量信息。这正是冯晨想要研究和探索的课题。
