時空幻象系列錄像
時間和空間是不應該分割的概念。沒有人能夠真正解釋我們面前的圖像。當我們拋棄原有成見,才能開始尋找圖像中的符號和意義從而重新構建認知邏輯。
這些錄像作品，每一個都源自一個真實的現場演出,影像中的影像亦是虛擬的演員。情節的展開由觀看者（人）、表演者（人）、動物影像、空間影像、所在空間與光影之間的真實互動關係建立。它們被安置在空間裡進行無限的循環播放，製造場域性的鋪設，力圖形成一種時空對時空的入侵,觀看與被觀看的開放式關係。通過建立平行空間式的時空包裹引發觀者認知上暫時性的錯亂,激發意識解放,任想象穿梭於現實與虛幻,歷史當下與未來的之間，在混沌中產生相關概念的檢索和共情,重啟出新的認知。該系列作品的構建基礎是人與動物概念圖形化關係後共謀所得的數學模型。錄像的素材基於藝術家的自創的具有實時性和生長性的影音劇場項目《困生》,該項目由藝術家柴覓設計、導演和推動,演出結合了當代舞,實時影像和聲音技術、空間裝置等，曾在多個非營利藝術機構面向公眾呈現。每一部錄像作品的名稱都包含演出所發生的日期。

Spacetime Illusion Video Series
The concepts of time and space are should not be divided. No one can really explain the image in front of us. Only abandoning our prejudice, one can see a sign-meaning and symbol-meaning of an image, thus reconstructing the cognitive logic.
Each of these video works originates from a real live performance, while the images are virtual actors. The plot is developed on the basis of the interaction between viewers (people), performers (people), animal images, space images, light, and shadow. They are placed in a space to circulate an infinite transmission and to form an open relationship between time and space, beholder and someone who is watched. By creating a parallel space type of space-time package, the viewer's cognition can be temporarily confused, the consciousness is liberated, and the imagination is shuttled between reality and illusion, between the past, present, and future. The cognition can be restarted by producing a concept of empathy in chaos. This series of works is based on the graphical relationships between humans and animals, and, as a result, on the mathematical model of these relationships. The material of the video is based on the live ongoing audiovisual theater project “CAPTURED CREATURES”. The project was initiated, designed and directed by artist Chai Mi. The performance combines contemporary dance, real-time video, sound technology, and site installation. It was presented to the public at various non-profit arts organizations. The title of each video work contains the date of the performance.

裝置作品｜夜光詞 Night Light
材料：油墨、紙、夜光材料
數量：3
藝術家將三篇短文印製在合成夜光材料的紙上。通過吸收光線，才能使夜光紙發光並將文字在黑暗中反襯出來，然而隨著時間的流逝，和光照的減少，夜光紙將暗淡下去，文字也將變得不易見或在黑暗中不可見，在光照充足的情況下，夜光紙上的文字將再次顯現，如此反覆，構成一件可以隨時間和環境變化的作品。三篇短文分別來自《伊索寓言》、《飛鳥集》和《彩圖集》三本廣為流傳的文集。它們分別出現於公元前6世紀、20世紀初和19世紀中後期，確意外的在字面上產生了互相關聯，共同提及了多重的意向，在結構上也形成了一個有趣的串聯以及迴路。文1來自《伊索寓言》描述了人與獸神話式的淵源；文2選自《飛鳥集》，通過觀感顯現了人與獸的區別；文3摘錄於《彩圖集》，隨著潛意識般的描述呈現出人與獸之間混沌不明的牽扯。從神話傳說、到人類情感、再到夢境般的神秘描繪，千百年來這些文字被不斷的書寫、編寫和流傳，在不同的時代傳達著並不一定相同的含義。這三首詩的發現源於在創作時空幻象《困生》系列作品時的閱讀摘抄，對於藝術家來說它們如同思想的夜燈，成為深夜裡靈感的嚮導。
本次在SNARTE SPACE的展覽，是該作品的首次曝光。
Night Light
Installation
Medium: printing ink, paper, luminous material
Quantity: 3
Artist has printed three short essays on an aluminous material. Absorbing the light, the luminous paper can shine, and make a text be seen in the dark. However, with the passage of time, the luminous paper is fading, and the text becomes invisible. When the light is sufficient again, the text will appear, creating the concept that can change with time and environment. Three short essays are selected from the collection works such as Aesop's Fables, Stray Birds, and Illuminations. They were written in different time periods: the 6th century BC, the early 20th century, and the late 19th century. Text One is from "Aesop's Fables", describes the source of human and animal myths; Text Two is selected from the "Stray Birds ", and shows the difference between human and animal through the observations; Text Three was taken from poetry collection "Illuminations", and presents a chaotic relationship between humans and animals. Starting from legends, myths, human emotions, dreams, these words have circulated for centuries, do not necessarily remains the same meaning. As part of the Spacetime Illusion “Captured Creatures” project, these three poems are like the night light of thoughts, become an inspiration guide in the night.
The installation is exhibited for the first time at Snarte Space.
