【在地實驗計劃論壇】在地聊計畫：陳敬寶

【在地聊計畫】系列，第八場，陳敬寶

Statement

《迴返》是一個以攝影為媒介，探討現實、真實與記憶的計劃。攝影似乎總是指向（被記錄的）當下及之後的時間與空間；但我總想著那些前於攝影的人、事與物，那些未能或未及被留影的瞬間；徒生感嘆。於是我試著從旁人的記憶中擷取片斷，透過表演的形式，使用大型相機、結合自然和人工光源，意圖重現一個記憶中的場景；讓那些未能成像的，得以顯影出來。因而，這些影像或可稱為披著擬實外衣的「偽記憶」。

Circumgyration is a photographic project dedicated to explore the boundary among reality, truth and memory. The temporality of photography is projected to the status quo and the future. I am always lamenting on the people and things existing before the invention of photography, for they lost the chance to be captured in the image and these moments were gone. That is the reason that I am fascinated to take fragments of memories from others and reenact them in my work. Using the 8 by 10 large format camera with the setup of lightings, I intend to arrest the scenes of these memories which has fleeted away in the past. Therefore, these images may be virtually regarded as the “pseudo memory”.

藝術家簡介

陳敬寶在攝影生涯的初始階段就著眼於攝影藝術不同的面向，以《片刻濃妝：檳榔西施》系列紀實肖像的作品廣受注目。他的「迴返」計劃，藉被攝者的文件書寫與擺拍式攝影來探討現實、真實與記憶的微妙界域。「天上人間」系列則藉由拍攝與民宅比鄰的小廟與墳墓，以「住屋」為隱喻，探討幽微的生死學；同時將台灣描繪為神、人與亡靈共居的土地。近年來進行的「尋常人家」系列，則著重於描繪記錄當代台灣人居家生活的樣態。陳敬寶於二○○八年獲頒日本北海道東川賞海外攝影家獎，目前居住並工作於台灣新北市。
