Out of Focus: Chapter of Playing an Insignificant Role

作品賞析

Artist TSAI I-Hsun’s works pay attention to the message delivery of digital media and the structural changes of interpersonal relationship in daily life. He sketches the social scenes from the viewpoint of an onlooker. His work Out of Focus: Chapter of Playing an Insignificant Role takes shadow play as the theme and simulates the interaction of modern people in reality. No matter in the park, bus stop, MRT, and elevator, people behave as if performing themselves in the film studio, but their bodies are in a vacant, blank, and flat situation. The artist creates the hand-made world of virtual reality with the digital block print. He produces a compound space with multiple meanings, depicts the out-of-focus status of ego and others, and banteringly simulates the human theater around him.
