JIA-HSIN - Wu Chang-Jung Solo Exhibition
家興－吳長蓉個展
2011/01/22~2011/02/20

Wu Chang-Jung’s “The Kaleidoscopig Farm” series is a documentary based on the daily life in the artist’s family rangeland called Jia Hsin. The works are a record of how, in the aftermath of the economic crisis, the artist’s family faced the financial difficulties, as well as a respond to the world that comes to pieces due to the efficiency.

Behind the pretty and lithe kaleidoscopic images, and magnificent brilliant diamond wallpaper pictures, were the deep and brutal true stories. This series of works not only try to express the adaptability and imagination in order to survive in the real world, but also try to introspect and respond to the well varnished world under the era where information dissemination paralyzed in a modest way.



​《家興》以家中牧場登記的名字「家興」命名。展示中所呈現的均是以在「家興」工作、生活為背景的紀錄片作品。希望藉由這幾個系列的作品，表達自己和家人面對金融風暴破壞的辛苦，以及因為經濟性而日趨破碎的世界做出回應。

這些看似美好輕盈的萬花筒休閒畫面，以及絢麗璀璨如同鑽石般的壁紙影像，將深沉殘酷生猛的的真實故事背景包裹深處，這系列作品企圖要表達的不僅僅是創作者對於現實生存中的對應能力與想像力外,也彷彿對於身處資訊傳播癱瘓的時代下所認知的包裝美好形象世界，企圖達到一種內斂的反思與回應。
