This artwork is a spatial installation, which utilizes the space of the gallery as its medium and text. Wooden planks normally seen in construction are used to structure a passage way, leading the viewers into and exiting the space by following the walls of the gallery. The installation keeps a fifteen-centimeter gap from the walls and is hundred and sixty centimeters above the ground. It attempts to eliminate the exhibiting function of the gallery walls while trying to hinder or interfere with the viewers’ sight. The installation separates the gallery into two sections. One section guides the viewers’ way in the fixed gallery space so that their bodies explicitly sense the previously implicit route. The other section is a space that the viewers must duck to enter. It becomes a site of theory and communication. Both sections provide shortcuts. While the former falls to that of the senses, the latter surfaces as theoretical.
This spatial structure reveals the viewers’ process of entering and exiting the gallery. Although neither the entrance nor the exit might allow the viewers to experience the so-called transcendence, this behavior is fundamental to the construction of the artwork. This piece could also be presented as a project in other spaces. The structure itself could also be moved out of the previously designated space and turned into a fluid structure. For example, the space of Project Fulfill Art Space could be relocated at the streets of Taipei or Tokyo. The “shortcuts” of other galleries or museums could be represented at some local markets or in some natural environment in Taiwan.

SHORTCUT 饒加恩 個展
“Shortcut”是以空間裝置的形式呈現,將畫廊空間作為媒材和文本,以建築用的木板建構一個通道,牽引觀者進入畫廊空間,並沿著畫廊牆面走出。空間裝置在空間的位置離牆面距離約15公分,結構離地面160公分,它試圖消除畫廊牆面的展示功能,也試著遮蔽或干擾參觀者的視線。他將畫廊區分成兩個部分,一個部分是建議參觀者如何在既定的畫廊空間移動,讓本來隱藏的路徑被身體感知,另一個部分則是彎下頭進入的空間,它成為一種論述和溝通的場域,兩者都構成了捷徑,前者是感知的,後者是論述的。
這個空間結構說明了觀者進入和走出畫廊的過程,儘管走進和走出展覽空間,不見得都可經驗所謂的昇華,但這個行為卻是構築作品的必要條件之一。而這件作品可以計劃的樣態在其他空間成立,也可將結構移出原本所屬的空間,成為流動的架構,比如說就在藝術空間在台北街頭或東京,而其他區域的畫廊或美術館“捷徑”出現在當地的市集中或台灣的自然環景觀中。
