根據聖經〈啟示錄〉，在末日之時，各族、各國的人類凡在額頭與右手被蓋有獸印666 者，皆無法逃脫惡獸的挾制。林珮淳2011年的《夏娃克隆系列》即借用聖經題材，創造出印有獸印666的「夏娃克隆」，以此呈現「惡」的概念，並引申科技文明對人類的危害。 《夏娃克隆肖像系列》以3D動態全像呈現夏娃克隆人獸同體的意像。夏娃額頭上刻有中文、阿拉伯文、埃及文等象徵獸印的數字666。全像裱於壓克力材質的透明黑框中，看起來仿如一具具死體標本，但又因著夏娃的眼神會隨著觀者之移動而轉動，這些肖像瞬間又具有生命活力。藝術家藉此欲表達科技(無機)與自然(有機)之間的張力與不安。 根據聖經， 666獸印除了印在額頭上，也同時印在右手上。因此，藝術家也創作了印有獸印的《夏娃克隆手》雕塑，並將之置放於醫學用罐中，看起來彷如實驗室中存放於福馬林液的器官標本。另外一部作品《夏娃克隆 No.3》則是以六角環場大型互動投影裝置，來呈現六個巨形夏娃克隆臉部浮沉於水中的影像。其臉部角度及眼神，則隨著觀眾左右位移而改變。當觀眾於環場投影的空間中走動時，猶如在詭譎的時空環境中與巨形夏娃克隆神秘對話。高度發展的科技文明，是否只為人類留下稍縱即逝的美麗的幻象，甚至是潛藏的危機？藉此展覽，藝術家希望能觸發觀眾對科技與文明更深刻的省思。 According to Revelation from the Bible, it was indicated that during the Great Tribulation, anyone from any tribe or country marked with beast number “666” on the forehead and right hand are not capable of escaping from the evil beast’s control. In Lin Pey-Chwen’s year 2011 solo exhibit, “Eve Clone Series”, she virtualizes a human and beast digital figure named “Eve Clone” marked with number 666. The figure serves as a metaphor to natural disasters caused by the endless progress of science and technology The work “Portrait of Eve Clone” will be presented in 3D hologram format framed in acrylic board. On the forehead of Eve Clone, the beast number 666 is marked in Chinese, Arabic, Egyptian, and etc. Through the frame, Eve Clone looks like a specimen, however, when people comes closer and walks around her, her eyes would follow their direction which makes Eve look alive. The artist would like to expose the tension between Organic Nature and Inorganic Technology through this work. The Bible not only states that the beast number would be marked on the forehead but also on the right hand. So, the artist presents a sculpture “The Hands of Eve Clone” and stores it in a medical glass container, allowing it to look like a formaldehyde specimen located in a chemistry lab. The other project, an interactive installation, “Eve Clone No. 3”, is presented in six huge images on a hexagon installation. The faces of Eve Clone looks like she is floating in water and as audience passes by, her face and eyes will follow the direction of the audience. When people walks around the installation, the surrounding and environment turns out to be a mysterious communication between Eve and the audience. The artist hopes to stimulate people to be aware of the consequences from high technology development and behind every temporary fantasy, there lies a hidden crisis.
