揚威海外 重視引發思考

梁志和是本港土生土長的藝術界精英份子,年代表香港首次參與享譽國際的威尼斯雙年展,其作品<<城市曲奇>>為人熟悉。針孔相機捕捉香港的天空,呈現天空被高樓大廈圍困的影像,再以這些不規則的天空形狀製作曲奇餅,突破創作媒體的框架, 作品充滿玩味

熱愛文化讀物的梁,喜歡從網絡空間及圖書館取材,創作主題圍繞不同的文化背景及對外來文化的閱讀,雖然對攝影的興趣較大,但梁志和喜歡視乎作品和展覽的背景,以各種不同媒體和技術去創作,其作品着重引發思考和啟發新角度。

你的創作是關於什麼?

我一直都以「左」作為主題。我自己是左撇子,對於「左」 (left) 這個字特別有感覺,亦聯想到 left是不是等於not right?是不是not right所以被遺棄/ left (out)?亦引發我對社會上被廢棄的作出思考。在現階段,我探討的是藝術與人性的關係,以及其力量可以帶來什麼。最近的展覽,比較着重關於遺棄這個議題,其實在不同的背景和不同情況下,每個人都可以是被遺棄的一群。

Why do you make paintings?

When I am painting, I feel relief.  This is what makes painting so interesting.  I do not think about anything else, I just paint.  I am looking to achieve a state when painting is about making art, not about any commercial ideas.

可以介紹一下你不同的身份嗎?

論藝術創作,我是一個定格動畫師,運用實物動畫説故事;論身份,我是個媽媽;論個性,我不太定格定性;論喜愛,近來耕種,學吹小號(喇叭),練習毛筆字。我感到有趣的人和事總是充滿contradiction及非理性的:做動畫的過程要理性地安排計算,卻希望表達出非理性的世界一面;吹小號是一樣很響亮的樂器,卻能吹奏出極溫柔的樂曲旋曲(聽聽Chet Baker!)。

為什麼創造Rabbit-Man?

其實自己不特別喜歡小動物,要畫兔仔是因為多年前在油麻地百老匯電影中心的精品店看到一個非常有趣的兔仔匙扣,可是當時没有買,這事一直耿耿於懷,覺得自己欠了兔仔。早年想在工餘時間畫visual diary 打發時間,想到要畫一個主角,第一時間就想到兔人。

起初,Rabbit-Man 是又肥又矮,有嘴巴,没有手指的,我一直畫了約一年多才形成到現在的形態。他有幾個朋友,金魚、樹懶和蝸牛,現正在畫關於他們的四格漫畫。

What is a regular work-day like?

I generally work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Besides creating works, I squeeze in a lot of emails and meetings and a bit of socialising too.  Lately I’m traveling a lot for my project in NYC, that adds another tons of meetings, planning and production work.  That’s an exhaustive process which takes a lot of my time out of the studio and I’m often out on location shooting for the video installations, bartering for support, hustling for PR, sourcing materials and directing our tiny band of volunteers.

What are your paintings about?

I make paintings about self identity, women and beauty culture. I also work as an illustrator and often make comics about fashion history.

你在馬灣參與Ten Tents時做了什麼作品?

我的作品名為<壓縮>,是馬灣給我的感覺。作品的形態呈現像焚墓的感覺,比喻送葬馬灣這邊的廢墟,現在只像空城一樣,跟昔日光輝的時間成一大對比。

怎樣愛上畫畫?

大概是5歲左右時,跟爸媽上教會,對牧師講道毫無興趣,所以就拿出一張數學功課簿中的「格仔紙」及一支原子筆,開始畫公仔以打發時間。當時沒有思考藝術,但就愛上了畫畫。到現在我都沒有認為自己在做藝術,只有維持畫畫。

How did you set foot in the art world?

I put my artworks on my blog and one day I got an invitation from a curator to participate in a local group exhibition.  At time I didn’t think too much about it, I just thought it would be fun to join and I immediately fell in love with the experience and that’s when I decided to become a full time artist.
