驻地工作坊第二十三期 | 给风的画：雷子艺、甘露、沈晓彤

雷子艺从开始学画画的时候，可能就对结构和框架感兴趣，比较特别的是她一直在尝试着把自己心绪对外的感知，作为结构叠压弯折到她的探索结构里，这些结构分明是她生理的成长序列。比如在“没有不痛苦的浪漫”里她将自己的身体分成欲望梦幻和失落绝望两个区域，中间类似“种子”的拳形物是对正常叙述方式的卡喉，忠实于她自己的生理欲望，那些梦想不能成真的青春，还有对于现实和欲望的焦灼，都在透明和半透明的空间曲折里来回折叠、分割，有时候又变形成一只巨大的类似眼睛或者肢体。她的画面结构带着一种灼热的器官感，结构关系被一种相互摩擦重叠的半透明性指引转换成了符号语言，符号在这里又导引出潜意识对欲望的纾解。有阵子这些结构变成了她梦里莫名其妙的风景景深关系，而现在这些结构，普遍具有一定的倾斜运动方式和象征性符号语言互为呼应，每一张画里的架构空间代表她自己对具体经验的情绪感知。那些牵挂拉扯来回的线，像她身体和情绪生理路径，有时候长绵不知所去有时候又被突然截断戛然而止，这些复行于结构框架之外的线，成了它自己从结构式出发的匿踪之径，让清晰灼热的框架变得支离和不可知。

Ganlu is a girl who can draw and write very well. When she was studying in the Fifth Studio of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, she always liked to draw collage-based graffiti on large drawing books: with her unbridled smears and line drawings cheerfully dancing in between all kinds magazine papers, wrapping paper, photos, color cardboards and later digital prints, she conveyed what she was on paper. She called this kind of painting “simple-stroke painting”. Afterwards, she fell in love with story-writing. She created various characters, treated the stories as inspirations and backgrounds for her painting, and even directly juxtaposed words and images together, which hones her capability of understanding and applying these two languages. In order to achieve a certain pleasure of writing, Ganlu was acting like an alchemist dived into a laboratory. She mixed all kinds of seemingly incompatible things together, and added her own spells. Then chemical reactions were rolling out, overwhelming and dancing more ecstatically and cheerfully.

Xiaotong’s project for this residency makes the red and green installation series created for last years’ graduation continued, and it also features the processed chair and other daily objects she adopted before. The difference is that this year a wall outside the installation has been added, a restriction imposed on viewing. She sets up three long strip openings that are almost as wide as a human face and slightly narrower than head, via which one can peep inside. In short, the audience cannot get in. The intense contrast between red and green endows those ordinary items with a magical fairytale spirit, and together with the neurotic materials like plastic packs, mesh bags, balloons, fabrics, reflective stickers, etc. “disorderly” showing up in the space, it gives clues to another world that Xiaotong once imagined—goldfish’s life in a goldfish bowl—another work of her, a stop motion animation created in 2019. In such a grotesque space, anything could happen—maybe this is what Xiaotong wants the audience to see through the openings, a dream-like untouchable “Neverland” of “Peter Pan”.
