Liu Je-Rong 劉哲榮
Overview
劉哲榮，1978年生於台灣台中，畢業於大葉大學造形藝術系雕塑組學士班及大葉大學設計暨藝術學院碩士班。他以敏銳的觀察力與豐富的想像力，將作品視為有機生命體，採取寓言體方式，賦予戲劇式的視覺張力，透過建構在人類思維下的動物觀點，闡述人類所生存的環境，嚴肅中卻不失幽默風趣。以後現代主義著重的多元視角與觀點切入物件本質，探求主客體的差異以及多元文化包容性的無限可能，並與歷史、個人經驗不斷交錯，將看似不相關的物件並置，企圖製造矛盾點來反映社會現狀，關注我們所生活的環境。透過不斷審視，以逆向思考方式進行由內而外的反思，希望將負面情緒與疏離感轉化昇華，在解讀的過程中找尋和諧共處的正向力量。
Liu Je-Rong was born in Taiwan in 1978. He takes his sculptures as an organism with delicate observation and wide imagination. His works endowed with dramatic tension in fable style represent the living environment through animals’ viewpoint but constructed under thoughts of humankind, found serious yet humorous. He explores subject and object diversity and infinite possibility of tolerance under multiculturalism in a way of post-modernism concerned to look into substance from various angles and viewpoints interacting with history and personal experience. Attempting to make contradiction by placing items together as if unrelated to reflect social reality and pay close attention to our living environment. When negative emotions and alienation sublimated through unceasing and reverse introspection, positive power will bring harmonious coexistence in the process of understanding.
