Multi-Layered Landscape / 複層地景

《複層地景》是一件以高鐵沿線影像為基礎的藝術創作。高鐵鐵路就如同一條縱貫台灣的剖面，可一覽各城市的風貌；首先藝術家在3d軟體中打造了一個虛擬影像裝置，將沿線所拍攝的台灣地景影片，透過AI與影像處理軟體於裝置中重新合成，並以加速化、立體化、風格化等等手法，給予了這些影像不同的意涵。有些扭曲、擴張的住宅，恰恰隱喻了人們對空間佔有的慾望；有些抽象、變形的地貌，則象徵了土地所受到的文明污染。透過將原先的2d影片重新以3d方式組構，呈現出表象之外、形而上的現象地景。而用以打造影像的3d的虛擬影像裝置，也變成了一個虛擬的、想像的台灣空間地貌。在影片的最後，藝術家引用了鄉土詩人吳晟的詩「店仔頭」，隱晦的對台灣地貌作出他的註解。

作品共分為三個段落: 首段與末段皆為3d虛擬影像裝置的運作紀錄；中段為以3d虛擬影像裝置再製的影片產出。實體展出將以多頻道投影的方式同時呈現各段落，已呈現現實、虛擬、再製的影像對比。 The Multilayered Landscapes" is an art creation based on imagery captured along the high-speed rail line. The high-speed rail represents a longitudinal cross-section of Taiwan, offering a comprehensive view of the urban landscape. Motivated by this, the artist utilized 3D software to construct a virtual image installation. He recombined the recorded Taiwanese landscape footage within the installation using image processing software, accelerating the individualization, three-dimensionality, stylization, and subtle distortions of residential structures, symbolizing people's desires for spatial occupation. Abstract and deformed landforms further symbolize the impact of civilization and land pollution. The 2D footage is reconfigured into a 3D representation, revealing the metaphysical essence beyond surface appearances. The 3D virtual image installation itself becomes a virtual and imaginative portrayal of Taiwan's spatial landscape. In the final part of the video, the artist subtly reference the poem "Dian Zai Tou" by local poet Wu Sheng, offering their own interpretation of Taiwan's landscapes. The work is divided into three sections: the opening and closing sections present the operational trajectory of the 3D virtual image installation, while the middle section features a visual contrast created through the reproduction of images using the 3D virtual image installation. The presentation employs multiple projections to simultaneously showcase different scenes, emphasizing the contrasting aspects of reality, virtuality, and reproduction.
