碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 美術學系碩(博)士班 === 105 === Abstract This thesis focuses on “how to become a Chinese fairy“as my working-in-progress practices. Frist of all, starting from the fairy icon from traditional Chinese culture, I attended to the 「Fairy Selection contest」 hosted by Tainan Temple. Getting involved in playing the role of Chinese fairy, I tried to connect the Chinese fairy concept with the female characters from ancient Chinese fantasy literature. By transferring the Scenes to the internet, I try to reach the “Real Chinese Fairy Representative” in modern world, and be in the part of the group. When it comes to the medium of my art work, I usually think about the characteristics of the material itself. At first I chose painting as to immediately taking down all the images and ideas that come to my mind, and looked up for some interesting formats from daily life to intensify the interactivity with the audience. My first art work after entering graduated school is a re-made electronic wall clock which I bought from online store into installation that has my paintings on. In this way, all the paintings can be viewed as individual painting artwork, or the design draft of the electronic installations. From 2015, inspired by relationship column writer, I started to build a museum of teenage girl’s mind, and put my efforts at researching and imitating the skills and esthetic of Electric Flower Cars (EFC). However, I couldn’t really get in touch with the formal craftwork skills, instead, the assembled collaged materials I got from everywhere are embarrassing. The more I try hard to pursue the ideal status, the more obvious that the artwork is a sub-quality products. By discussing the frustrations I encountered when I was making the artwork, I reflect the anxiety and doubt I have towards my reality. On the other hand, all these philistine artwork I make is a humor sarcasm towards the society.
