Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 應用藝術研究所 === 100 === This thesis focused on a visual experiment using papers as the main medium to create the
cross weaving surface of a work. My own life experiences were interwoven into the work
to enrich the results of visual experiment.
An autobiographical and diaries writing of my dreams were used to reveal two aspects.
They are the records of my art making in general and the making of my graduation piece
"Strangeness-the Woven Matrix". Both of them have shown the process of my
awakening consciousness of being a woman and my inner reflections of the process of
individualization.
In the "Strangeness-the Woven Matrix" series, I first deconstructed the image of the
three women-my grandmother, mother and myself, sliced them into pieces and re-
weaved them together. However, it is hard for me to foresee the completed work. There
are always risks when one responds to art making with instinct. It is a direct response
without any judgment or bias involved, but only act by one's intuitive sense. Sometimes, it
made me deviate from the normal course or feel unfamiliar with myself. Therefore, in this
thesis I attempted to review the connections between my works and my dreams from the
last year. With the help of analyzing my dreams, I will continue my journey of art making.
I not only examine the connections between my dreams and my works but also expect my
future dreams to come (true).
