Bank Safe Robbers
46 x 30 x 18 cm
Robbers have often been portrayed as
extraordinary figures with aesthetics and philosophy of crime. They are symbols
of freedom and indulgence in the non-real world. Compared with current
over-crowding situations, they elude pursuit from polices and hide in the
hidden corners while they rob and steal. Excluding the negative value of these
acts, such unrestrained thoughts are our dream of thinking. I try to combine
comics of Chinese kung fu fictions with circumstances of crime in film, in
order to imply aesthetics and philosophy of crime by core thoughts in kung fu.
The un-trammels within this reflect the distance between modern complicated
life and the imaginative.
一些帶有負面價值的人物往往被作家、導演等描繪成具強烈個性的角色,就如強盜被刻劃成擁有著特殊犯罪美學及哲學思想的超凡人物;又或被形容為劫富濟貧、鋤強扶弱的俠義之士。不論何者,自由及放縱可說是強盜在虛構世界的代名詞,尤在現今擁擠及體制化的社會,更突顯都市人所缺乏,以至所憧憬的奔放思維。
我嘗試將漫畫裡中國的武俠世界結合電影中強盜的犯罪場景,以古代的武俠情義引申其美學及哲學,跟現代社會繁瑣及想象間的生活作一對照。
