影像的來源是「此曾在」的事物狀態,它的表面真實性無庸置疑,但如文字一般,是面破碎的鏡子。影像來自事實,我們卻以為影像傳達了真實,可是真實依附脈絡才能存在,而脈絡在影像中總是被切斷的。這讓觀者感到焦慮(就算觀者不自覺),從而激發大腦的神經迴路,從自身記憶資料庫中去完成影像中的脈絡,在影像中察覺到自身的意識/潛意識。於是,真實和虛構的光線以一種無可迴避的方式在觀者,作者,和影像之間交互投射。
泰戈爾說 ”Truth in her dress finds facts too tight; In fiction she moves with ease“。影像戴著事實的鐐銬,卻憑著虛構的靈魂而跳舞,而能自由。我的創作嘗試用現代詩的精神,去訴說那些原本在我們集體意識溝通外的「無可名狀」,讓觀者去經驗,去洞察:在每個人的眼裡,這世界都包含著一種詩意。
