黛安・謝里：2024絕對空間藝術進駐藝術家駐村成果開幕暨座談

【展覽內容簡述 Statement】

在台南的第一天結束時，我在中西區附近散步。當我走上通往藥王廟的小徑時，我感覺自己終於來到了這個陌生的新國度。街道上到處掛滿燈籠，點亮了不同顏色和文字的光彩。我覺得這將是一個美麗的繪畫素材。因此，我決定創作一個裝置藝術，將繪畫融入到這些新材質上。這個裝置藝術及展覽的名稱是「開悟」（Enlightenment）。它既指照亮燈籠的光，也象徵著精神上的覺醒。台南這座城市環繞著如此濃厚的精神氛圍，擁有眾多廟宇，讓我重新連接到生命的無形流動。

藝術進駐是一段珍貴的時間，讓人能夠體驗孤獨。這是透過繪畫此一修行與自己對話的時間，感受與此時此地連結的喜悅。作為一種精神修行，繪畫讓我們得以點亮自己，穿越不同的空間，並跟隨內心的指引。我的燈籠承載著抽象畫作：這是一種讓身體的動作自然流露的日常練習，其過程旨在擺脫對結果的執念，專注於由直覺引導的動作與方向。我喜歡同時創作多幅畫作，在不同的時間軸上進行創作，然後為每幅作品進行最後的修飾，就像為珠寶添加最後的細節和小形狀一樣。

「開悟」是一個超越畫布，讓繪畫覆蓋整個展場牆面的展覽，為觀眾帶來被形狀和色彩包圍的沉浸式體驗。展覽空間被構想成一個視覺旅行的聖殿，是一個反映我內心旅行的親密空間，與我在這片新土地上的旅行相呼應。有些畫作的大小如同明信片，靈感來自我所寫的一些信件。牆上的畫作靈感來自於我在這裡見過或學到的風景、圖像和中文字。抽象與現實主義在這裡達到了平衡，如同一次內在與外在的旅行。燈籠在展覽場地外進行展示，從展覽空間延伸到城市，以此來展現展覽的旅程和繪畫在街頭移動的過程，作為這座新聖殿的一場儀式：喚神、起舞、狂歡。

感謝絕對空間藝術進駐提供這次機會，也感謝來自巴黎的Espace Temps空間的支持。

At the end of my first day in Tainan, I had a walk around the West Central District area. I had the feeling of finally having arrived in this unknown new country when I took the path that led me to Yaoweng Temple. The streets were surrounded by so many lanterns everywhere, lightning up different colors and inions. I felt it would be a beautiful object to paint on.

I decided to create an installation where the painting could fall in place on this new material.

Enlightenment is the name of this installation and of the exhibition. It refers to the light that illuminates the lanterns and also to the spiritual state of awakening. Taiumlnan being circumscribed by such a spiritual atmosphere and so many temples, it allowed me to reconnect with the invisible flow of life.

An art-residency is a precious time to experience loneliness. A time to dialogue within myself through painting as a discipline to experience the joy of being connected to here and now. As a spiritual practice, painting offers the experience to light ourselves up, to travel into different places and to follow what needs to come out.

My lanterns are welcoming abstract paintings : a routine to let the movement run out of the body, the process is to free my mind of the idea of a result to be only connected to the gesture and direction led by my intuition. I like to work on several paintings at the same time, to navigate them in several temporalities, then I give each of them finishing touches, as a jewelry adorned by last details and small shapes.

Enlightenment is an exhibition where the painting goes out of the canvas all over the walls of the gallery to bring an immersive experience to the audience being surrounded by shapes and colors. The gallery is thought of as a temple of visual journey. An intimate place of reflection of my inner travel in parallel to the travel I have made in this new land. Some paintings are the same size as postcards, they are inspired by some I have written. Paintings on the wall are inspired by landscapes, images and Chinese characters I have seen or learned here. Abstraction and realism are finding balance together as an inner and external travel.

Lanterns have been performed outside of the exhibition place, from the gallery to the city, to manifest a journey of the exhibition and the paintings moving in the streets, as a ceremony of this new temple : Summon, dance, carnival of art.

Thank you both to Absolute Space AIR for this great opportunity and to Espace Temps from Paris for their support.
