| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 新媒體藝術學系碩士班 === 100 === Looking back upon my creative process, one may find that human body dominates the images. Some of the images are composed with imagination, which derives from the enduring memory buried deep inside our body. Memories have been continuously accumulated since the first day we were born; we cannot define where we are without measuring the distance to the others. On the other hand, some images are based on real-life experiences. Those images tend to represent my understanding to and analysis of the relationship among memories / imagination, reality, and life, according to observations on environments and the body’s situation within a culture at certain moment.
This article is an attempt to integrate theories in the fields of art history, sociology, and gender study to support or explain my work''s composition and then to explore its implications. That is, my work shall suffice by itself as a way of discourse, and assertions in the article are to initiate the dialogue between my work and the audience.
Current consumer culture and the phenomenon of image overload are accounted and analyzed as well. This article shows how the body unites again with one’s sensations, experiences, and sharing of feelings by just “being there.”Actions so ridiculous on the surface even become a way to bring one back to reality in obviously staged settings.
