【作品介紹 Description】

《黑暗中的彩虹》為一委託製作之戶外裝置，以”傷痕”為概念發想源頭，結合大眾的書寫行為，透過光在日與夜呈現開放與私密的兩種狀態。裝置為數個長方形量體組件，並設置在台北當代藝術館的“廣場”，試圖在公共空間中製造隱蔽場所。民眾可藉由尖銳物品在覆上黑色漆料的作品表面，留下任何想訴說的字眼或圖案；作品內置的多彩 LED 燈條，到了夜晚，這些隨著時間不斷累積的痕跡，如同時間切片，漸漸從刻劃下的文字與圖像縫隙間透出光芒，由個人私密的書寫轉為眾人的共筆。裝置從每個人的內在生命經驗扣合廣場開放的場所特性，同時公開回應不同城市間的展出，曾在台北以同志議題為題，東京則安置於六本木街頭，分別回應社會現況。裝置、空間、時間及民眾參與構成作品的完整意涵。傳遞著人們面臨各種傷痛時，仍團結凝聚以勇敢姿態正視傷痕，最終成為這時代階段的紀錄。

 

“Rainbow in the Darkness” is an outdoor site-specific interactive installation. The work began with the concept of “scars” which everyone had, therefore the act of writing together by people is the key element of this work. The work welcomes the public in daytime and the private messages on it are shown through the light in the night. The artist aims to initiate a dialogue with the public through the installation of a black matrix in the middle of the plaza. In the daytime, visitors can leave words or images by removing the black paint from the surface of the installation with a sharp thing; at nighttime, the LEDs within the installation emit rainbow-color light that shines through these inscriptions.Private writings become part of the work and make “Rainbow in the Darkness” a carrier for collective memories. The work combines both internal living experience of everyone and the characteristic of plaza as an open space. It is also in response to social issues by touring to different cities, LGBTQ in Taipei and disasters in Roppongi, Tokyo. The installation, public participation, time and space construct the whole meaning of the work which deliver the message to face the pain and difficulties together and bravely. Eventually it will become a record of the era.
