塗鴉藝術
第12屆
2014
年度入圍

整個城市都是畫室,在台灣各地街頭,總是能巧遇他的作品,或是在頹圮角落裡探頭向你打招呼,或是像個說書人影子,短暫卻赤裸地揭露文明世界的不義。隨著旅行腳步,把創作融化成水泥漆,裝在行李箱中的寶特瓶裡,一路從柏林、緬甸畫到北京,一句「萬物皆可畫」,徹底道出了塗鴉藝術觀賞空間的最大特點。忙碌過後喜歡來一罐氣泡飲料,享受色素和糖水在舌尖奔跑的暢快,他是塗鴉藝術家Candy Bird。

一個極具個人色彩與魅力的藝術語言。

入圍理由 Reason for Nomination

歷經多年的創作磨練,Candy Bird的塗鴉繪畫已臻至成熟,形成一個極具個人色彩與魅力的藝術語言;它不是偶發的街頭,而是襲向全面的社會空間,已超出一般所謂的塗鴉藝術,是有理念的計畫行動與運動協力者,其視覺語彙是在揶揄、批判資本體制者有權者與既得利益者的社會宰制與土地掠奪。近年來,Candy Bird的塗鴉得到更多曝光,更加為人所知,呼應了社會不平等的聲音,以致於他的創作不能視為公共空間的臨時占有,有權表達的臨機表述,而是被轉化為一個替弱勢者講話的發聲管道,擴展了這種藝術類型的圖像張力。提名觀察人 ─ 陳泰松

After years of creative experiments, Candy Bird’s graffiti painting has now matured, turning into an artistic language full of personal colors and charms. They are not spontaneous street arts; they are now attacking all social spaces, going beyond the so-called “graffiti art”. They are action planner and participants with ideas, and their visual vocabulary is to poke fun and criticize the control on society and exploitation of land by capitalist powers and their beneficiaries. In recent years, Candy Bird’s paintings have gained greater exposure, and are better known to the public, echoing the voice that accuses inequality in the society. Therefore, his works cannot be seen as temporary occupation of public space, an incidental discourse with the right to convey; rather, his paintings have transformed to become the channel that speaks for the weak, expanding the pictorial tension of this art form. Nominators: CHEN Tai-Song
