DNA House

Bonnie Lai Antiquities, a gallery specialised in ancient Chinese funerary art, Oscar Chan Yik Long uses the medium of video to examine his relationships with his partner and his mother. As a work of autofiction, it combines real and fictional elements. In a confessional voice-over, Chan talks about his struggle to adjust to the people closest to him and to his new life after leaving Hong Kong. Many of the images that accompany the narration show bizarre objects in the artist's home. Caught in the brutal light of a camera flash, the toy figures, masks and puppets evoke a morbid atmosphere of insecurity and fear. This feeling of dread is heightened by drawings of ghosts and monsters that are superimposed on many of the photographs.

#陳翊朗 #乾馨唐 #荷李活道

在乾馨唐這間古陶俑藝廊，陳翊朗以錄像作品《八腕目》來探索他與伴侶和母親之間的關係。流動影像是他在創作媒介方面的新嘗試，影片由靜止的畫面和旁白組成，並呈自傳小說風格，內容結合真實與虛構元素。告白式的畫外音由藝術家親自演繹，談及與至親和至愛相處時的矛盾，以及離開香港後的掙扎。家中的詭異舊物，如人像模型、面具和玩偶，都過度曝光地呈現在一幅又一幅畫面之中，手繪鬼怪形象更神出鬼沒，瀰漫不安的氣息。
