Yun-Ting Hung images “Imagination” is like an electronic machine which can deal with all kinds of possible messages received by human beings. It has its own power to control our senses and mind and lead us to an internal world from the outer space. According to this her works always goes trough the creativity of the artist herself and the subjective discovery about the reality. It not only brings out the twisted look of the things but also create another reality world, which connects the common memories in our daily life.
Kuen-Lin Tsai has been using sound and plastic pipes as the basic elements for his creative expression. He aims to use hearing in order to affect the inertial thoughts people usually have towards space and place. By means of dislocation the audience is allowed to rediscover the space. The material itself is the artist’s communication tool, he collects sounds, images and stories to transform them into art forms, try to present for people—in digital age, we always ask everything to be quick and easy but eventually only consumption left, because human nature is greedy. Therefore he believes it is important to use the senses to experience the real things, even sometimes it is very slowly.
Yun-Ting Hung and Kuen-Lin Tsai are both contemporary artists. This is their first collaboration. Site and body has long been a topic that they are interested in, they will try to connect the relationship among viewers body, Nakanojo local and artworks. Through seeing or participating in the artwork, viewer’s body enters a extendable space and starts to interact with the work, exchange thoughts and try to change their life with the new experience, thus to respond to this dramatic world.
