Mr.Bambii
Overview
Mr.Bambii，生於1993年，越南華裔藝術家。早期為詩人，後將文字作為載體，開始進行表演藝術。經常與其他不同領域的藝術家，如聲樂家、音樂家、當代舞者等合作，創作多場互動性高的表演，將詩的寓意與人類之於自然關係中的暗流用不同物種的注視捕捉觀點，緩緩呈現。現主要以雕塑的方式來描繪詩的豐富情感意象。2022年創立敖海美術館，從事藝術保護和建立基金會，致力於分享推廣及保存藝術的價值。目前創作與生活於越南胡志明市。
Mr.Bambii認為「蠟」能夠將一首詩透過雕塑的形式理想地保存並傳世於後，在視覺上亦能充分地體現詩歌裡的風景。對他來說，蠟燭融化至凝固的過程不單純是物理化學現象，而是一個從自我解構、相遇、成長、重組並包容的生命過程，是大自然給予的智慧。每一個生命的長成都是如此地獨特，如同自己與生俱來的藝術本能與性傾向，都是相當自然且不可被剝奪的。因此Mr.Bambii的蠟雕作品，不僅同時結合了大自然的互動與充滿詩意的生命體悟，更完全呈現出藝術家獨一無二的自我，實踐了物我合一的哲理。
Mr.Bambii, born in 1993, is a Chinese-Vietnamese artist. Initially as a poet, he later used written words as a medium for performing arts. He frequently collaborates with artists from different fields such as vocalists, musicians, contemporary dancers, creating highly interactive performances. These shows subtly explore the relationship between the symbolism of poetry and the undercurrents in human-nature connections, capturing perspectives through the gaze of different species. Currently, Mr.Bambii primarily expresses the rich emotional imagery of poetry through sculpture. In 2022, he founded the Ao Hõi Fine Art Museum, engaging in art preservation and foundation establishment, committed to sharing, promoting, and preserving the value of art. He currently resides and works in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Mr.Bambii believes that "wax" is an ideal medium for preserving and passing down poetry through the form of sculpture, visually embodying the landscapes within the poems. For him, the process of wax melting to solidification is not merely a physical-chemical phenomenon but a life journey involving self-deconstruction, encounters, growth, recombination, and inclusivity—a wisdom bestowed by nature. Each life's development is uniquely profound, much like the inherent artistic instinct and sexual orientation that cannot be deprived. Therefore, Mr.Bambii's wax sculptures not only combine interactions with nature and poetic life realizations but also fully present the artist's distinctive self, embodying the philosophy of oneness of self and the world.
