Various “marks” or “effects” can be imposed upon
a “photo”, resulting in transformation, destruction and distortion of the photo
images.
In the process of the rapid development of the
city, the “scars” of damage have been deeply seared into our living
environment. Not only have the buildings of old Macao been transformed,
dismantled, buried and forgotten but values have been changed, destroyed and
distorted.
Except for expressing my viewpoints and feelings
to the development of city, I also want to emphasize the medium of “photograph”
and the material of “photographic paper” by tearing, incising, folding etc.
Old photos (comparatively traditional medium) as
the starting point, I created a piece of video work, from “static” to “moving”;
from the environment in “old photos” to “present” circumstances, which also
means “old” to “new”.

This work is invited to participate the exhibition “Nostalgia Refreshed: Old
Macao + New Media” in Macao Museum of Art in 2011. The exhibition themed around the scenes of
old Macao seeks to interpret works by senior photographers taken in different
periods of time in the form of contemporary art.
「相」片被強加上不同的「痕」跡,相片的影像因而被改變、破壞和扭曲。
思考在城市急速發展的過程中,一道又一道的「傷痕」也刻進我們身處的環境。不僅是那些舊景物被改變、拆除、 覆蓋掩埋,進而遺忘,而是正確的價值觀被改變、破壞和扭曲。
由「澳門老照片」進而反思「今天澳門的城市發展」。
對照片所做的動作,包括撕開,切割,摺疊等等,除了演繹和表達對現今城市發展的一些看法和感想外,也同時希望強調「照片」這種媒體和「相紙」的質料。
由老照片(較傳統媒體)開始,創作一錄像藝術(新媒體)作品,由「靜止」到「可動」;由「老照片」的環境看「現今」的環境;也是由「舊」到「新」。
***此作品是2011年應邀參與澳門藝術博物館的一個展覽項目──「澳門舊景新媒睇」,以澳門舊景為主題,以當代藝術的表現形式,詮釋前輩攝影家在不同年代為澳門留下的影像。
