入圍理由 Reason for Nomination

高俊耀是難得具有魔鬼視野的創作者。2013年，他與莫兆忠聯合編導的《大世界娛樂場》，以速寫的筆觸勾勒出賭城的眾生相，捕捉了一系列澳門的諷刺連環畫。今年的《II》擴大格局，以賭場資本主義時代的人物特寫，呈現出市場競爭下的自我剝削，和在自我剝削的慢性自殺中，達到狂喜的地獄圖。尤其是歌隊的處理，從一開場步伐穩健的慢跑，到中段在崎嶇的過道上驚險的平衡，再到最終墜樓的意象，透過身體律動的具體改變，變奏出社會大眾的機械性規律，及至瘋狂的加速運轉，直到失速墜落。《大世界娛樂場II》用魔鬼附身的身體，譜成當代的地獄。提名觀察人—郭亮廷

KOH Choon-Eiow is one of those rare artists who possesses a demonic vision. In 2013, he co-wrote and co-directed A Gambling World with MOK Sio-Chong, which delineated a picture of different kinds of people in the city of gambling and captured a series of caricaturistic existence in Macau. This year’s A Gambling World II had an even larger scale. It minutely portrayed people in casinos in the capitalist age, represented the self-exploitation under market competition, along with the chronic suicide committed in the act of self-exploitation, and finally completed an ecstatic, hellish tableau. From the ambling pace that was stable and steadfast in the opening, to a tricky balance on the rough passageway in the middle, to the falling imagery at the end, through the visible changes in physical movement, the outstanding design of the chorus corresponded in various ways to the mechanical rhythm of the public in society, its irrational acceleration, and the inevitable, uncontrollable final fall. With the possessed body, A Gambling World II has portrayed a contemporary hell. (Commentator: KUO Liang-Ting)
