"2011年開始構思《類山水PS.早春圖》動態影像,是「類山水PS.古畫系列」的第一件作品,以電腦編輯(Photoshop)手法,將袁氏皴法的女性情緒團塊、話語轉喻,覆蓋反轉古典陽性山水意識,也是對於古畫皴結構背後隱藏的政治主體象徵,加以顛覆與換置。
另以自創的《PS. THEY》系列動態影像,運用自古已有的模件化生產方式,以袁氏皴法多樣性皴塊符號,取代古典皴結構的單一性與辨識系統。情緒性的「類山水THEY Shanshui」皴塊熱鬧紛雜、眾聲雜遝,如同我們所處的多元世界。"
The video “Displacing Guo Xi's Early Spring in THEY Shanshui” was first conceptualized in 2011. It is the inaugural work in the THEY Shanshui PS. Ancient Paintings Series. Using computer editing techniques(Photoshop), this piece overlays and inverts classical masculine landscape motifs with emotional clusters and metaphorical discourse derived from Yuan’s cun(皴) texturizing technique. It also subverts and replaces the political symbolism concealed behind the structural composition of ancient paintings.
Additionally, the original “PS. THEY” series of videos employs traditional modular production methods that have been around since ancient times. By adopting the diverse cun symbols of Yuan’s cun method, it replaces the singularity and identification system of classical cun structures. The emotional “THEY Shanshui” features a bustling and noisy collection of cun clusters, reflecting the diverse and complex world we live in.
「PS. THEY」是袁慧莉「類山水」大系的第三部曲,以隱喻人生喜怒哀樂情緒的「類山水」皴塊進行動畫拼貼編輯而成影像。
「PS. THEY#07 : 人生如浮雲」在各式情緒皴塊後加上一朵飄然遠去的白雲,象徵時間歲月,所有的喜怒哀樂在那漸漸流動消失的時間中,終將隨風而逝淡然遠去,然後週而復始,一代一代的人生就如浮雲一般,來來去去。
"“PS. THEY” is the third installment in Yuan Hui-Li’s “THEY Shanshui” grand composition, which is an animated collage constructed from “THEY Shanshui” textured blocks that allegorically embody the spectrum of human emotions.
“PS. THEY#07: Gone with the Wind” with a drifting white cloud placed against a backdrop of emotional brushstrokes, symbolizes the passage of time. All emotions, from joy to sorrow, gradually dissipate with the flow of time, much like clouds drifting across the sky. This cycle repeats endlessly, as new generations experience the same transient emotions."
