洪莆日美本次在當代館實驗空間的個展，創意結合了東方水墨畫的空靈美學與當代科技媒體的聲光元素，以二元對照而不對立的概念和表現手法，在當代館實驗空間的通廊和兩個展場中，充分應用了碎形與全整、明亮與黑暗、垂直與水平、動感與寧靜、聽覺與嗅覺…等異質元素或情境的交響對話，並透過觀賞動線的設定和多元感官的激發，讓觀者自然地去發現和體驗各種情境變化，進而去思索、涵詠此中的美學內涵。 本次展出，作為主視覺元素的水墨畫，可視為兩種山水畫典型的擴張與變奏：明亮氛圍的第一個展場，以近景特寫尺度，結合水聲、氣流和背投影動畫等，營造了高山流瀑「上窮碧落下黃泉」的張力視覺；黑暗基調的第二展場，則是以橫向構圖和弧形開展的遠景江山，搭配日出/日落的動態走位，以及隱形而可感的自然香氣等元素，寫照出空間無限延伸、時間緩緩流動的抒情畫境。這種對立卻又逐漸過渡交融的狀態，表達出藝術家心中追求終極和諧的價值觀，以及宇宙運轉總是趨於動態平衡的認識論。 本次展出，作為主視覺元素的水墨畫，可視為兩種山水畫典型的擴張與變奏：明亮氛圍的第一個展場，以近景特寫尺度，結合水聲、氣流和背投影動畫等，營造了高山流瀑「上窮碧落下黃泉」的張力視覺；黑暗基調的第二展場，則是以橫向構圖和弧形開展的遠景江山，搭配日出/日落的動態走位，以及隱形而可感的自然香氣等元素，寫照出空間無限延伸、時間緩緩流動的抒情畫境。這種對立卻又逐漸過渡交融的狀態，表達出藝術家心中追求終極和諧的價值觀，以及宇宙運轉總是趨於動態平衡的認識論。 Hong's solo exhibition at MoCA Studio, is a combination of the aesthetics oriental ink wash painting and various sound and lighting elements usually used in contemporary media art. The two MoCA Studio galleries and its corridor embody the concept of duality, forming a harmonious comparison. Hong uses fragments and entirety, brightness and darkness, the vertical and horizontal, motion and serenity, auditory and olfactory effect to create dialogues between heterogeneous media. Through the intentional arrangement of viewing sequence and triggering different senses, audiences are inspired to discover and experience the changes of the situation and to further contemplate the meaning of Hong’s art. The main visual of this exhibition is the expansion and variation of Shan-shui (mountain-water) in traditional ink wash painting. In the first gallery, Hong uses a close-up perspective and adds the sound of flowing water, wind and animation to delineate the visual tension of a waterfall in high mountains. The second gallery is relatively dark-toned. The horizontal distant landscapes, collocated with the sunrise/sunset simulation and natural fragrance, create a poetic space of endless landscape where time passes slowly. Such confronting positions which gradually blend together express the artist's pursuit of ultimate harmony and the epistemology of a cosmos in perpetual dynamic equilibrium. Walking through the carefully designed, rationally planned yet poetic landscapes created by Purume Hong, the visitors' senses, including visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile, and vestibular senses will be aroused, just like when we are situated in nature, multiple senses always function simultaneously.
