七位新晉影像創作者以不同媒介及技巧,展出從攝影出發,但目的地各異的作品。
起渣,指影像因裁切過度、曝光不足、攝像模糊而隱沒於顆粒或底噪的現象,亦隱藏着攝影師對攝影的迫切渴求。看不清的照片,背後存在着更多的可能性,亦隱藏着攝影師對攝影的迫切渴求。起渣,是一個表達及技法的實驗,把想像變成影像的必經過程。

Seven emerging multimedia artists make use of different techniques in this exhibition toexplore imaging works across and between various media. Each with their own objective andstyle, these works mark not the end of the line, but the process that the artists go through tolook for their next stop of the journey.

Pixilated, an adjective meaning bewildered and confused. With a similar pronunciation, pixelated describes the phenomenon when an image is displayed with visible pixels and grain.
When the technology of photography has become soadvanced and accessible in this day and age, pixelated pictures are often despised at firstsight. However, these blurry and indistinct images which are vague and indifferent couldsometimes represent more possibilities.
Pixilated, a necessary experience to turn imagination into image.
擁有安眠、置物、辦事的空間,是建構家的元素。作品以變形傢俬為切入點,探討空間和適應的課題。以人與物結合渗透的想像,訴說光怪離奇的寓言性故事,賦予傢俬死後的靈魂,無厘頭又怪誕的存在,是催生劑也是回力鏢。《傢俬變形記》 是鄭氏所創作的虛構寓言故事,故事講述家具死亡後,轉化為具生命的形態。鄭氏在異地生活和駐留的經驗中受到啟發,以居所中的現成物為創作靈感,以人物刻劃香港的生活形態、習性和精神面貌。系列由不同建構家的傢俬組成,包括《伸縮枱先生》、《多層床先生》和《隱形櫃先生》。
A space to sleep, work, and store are the key elements of a home. For furniture, leaving their homes means a death sentence. In the distorted world after their death, they will reincarnate and transform into a human form. The transformation and deformation of furniture are derived under specific environmental conditions by giving up parts of themselves to fit the situation or growing extra parts to fulfill its needs. They deform, evolve, or devolve. This work uses shape-shifting furniture as a starting point to explore the issues of space and adaptation in Hong Kong. The combination of a human and an object tells an allegorical story. By giving the furniture souls, it creates a nonsensical, grotesque existence and bizarre feeling.
